I'm new to ubuntu, and might have had a couple of false starts updating ruby / rails. I'm trying to start clean by removing all versions of every thing ruby from my system

I think I've installed everything through either Synaptic, or aptitude purge, but I can still do the following:

jwally@jwally-laptop:~$ ruby -v
ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [i686-linux]

jwally@jwally-laptop:~$ gem -v
1.3.7

jwally@jwally-laptop:~$ irb
irb(main):001:0> RUBY_VERSION
=> "1.9.2"

but when I type "dpkg -l | grep ruby, I only get the following:

rc  ruby1.8-elisp                        1.8.7.249-2                                     ruby-mode for Emacsen

thanks in advance
