I get:

jim@caesar ~$ rvm install 1.8.7
Installing Ruby from source to: /home/jim/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.8.7-p352, 
this may take a while depending on your cpu(s)...

ERROR: Error running 'make ', please read 
/home/jim/.rvm/log/ruby-1.8.7-p352/make.log

installation.

I do have build-essential installed. Make is in my path as well.
