I use rvm with gemsets (on Ubuntu) and rarely have any of the problems
you describe. rvm, ruby and rails with dependencies are installed in
two commands as described on rvm.io

gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys
409B6B1796C275462A1703113804BB82D39DC0E3
\curl -sSL https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --rails

Each app specifies the ruby and gemset to use in .ruby-version and
.ruby-gemset so there is very little that can go wrong. Bundler
installs all the gems needed for the app to the gemset.

Starting from a virgin machine with Ubuntu installed I reckon I could
have everything needed installed and an app checked out of its git
repo and running in less than 30 mins. Much less probably.
