Can confirm that I got the same issue. I installed 3.1.2 instead.

Hi, without more information from the build log, it's not clear what could be the cause of the failure. Note the Results logged to line and see the log file at that location. Search for lines like "error" or "failure" to try to discover what could have caused the build to fail. Optionally, share the full build log as a Gist and paste the link here. That way people on this message board might be able to help. Thanks!

I tried to install the ruby version 3.2.2. I'm also having the same problem above.

@italoj I've seen this particular error multiple times before, but there was never enough information on what actually causes it. Please refer to #2178 (reply in thread) and let us know if you find anything!
