Right, but somewhat beside the point. That is, assuming you have Debian (at whatever level) and want 1.9.2, there are lots of ways you might get it. Backports is always a good option for newer things, compiled for stable. (In the case of Ruby, I would probably go with rvm first, but that's neither here nor there.)
But the irony is that Ruby says "This is the distro that has our highest level of support." while simultaneously that distro does not (out of the box) support 1.9.2. Just an odd thing, and it struck me. Tenderlove's explanation is perfectly reasonable, and I'm not criticizing. It's just ironic.
