### Installing Ruby 2.x on Arch Linux
If you are trying to install Ruby 2.x on Arch Linux (or similar), you may need
to manually specify the `readline` location manually.
RUBY_CONFIGURE_OPTS=--with-readline-dir="/usr/lib/libreadline.so" rbenv install 2.1.0
This should no longer be necessary once this [issue][] is resolved in Ruby.
