I think the recommended way is to do the following

sudo apt-get install build-essential

Then install gems the normal way. Otherwise you will be dependent on
ubuntu repositories for all your gems with native extensions, and you
may be stuck a few versions behind (or completely without -- is
Nokogiri, for example, available at all yet?)

-- Mark.
