Subject: best way to make .rb into an executable for linux?

I have a pretty basic .rb script that I would like to turn into an
executable.  What is the best way to do this for Linux?  I have no
intentions of cross compatibility, so I don't care if it won't work for
Windows or Mac.

I've tried rubyscript2exe.  Doesn't work, but afaik, that's old so
whatevz.
I've tried to install crate via "gem install crate", but it gives me the
following error

Error installing crate:
  ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.


Can anyone give me a decent way to get a .rb to an executable for Linux?
(damn you ocra!)

Thanks guys.
