Answer 1

Ruby 2.2.0 requires the devel version of libffi, so this should help:

sudo apt-get install libffi-dev

Answer 2

I tried to answer Tomáš Dundáček, but that did not work for me. I have to install the following to make it work.

 sudo apt-get install autoconf bison build-essential libssl-dev libyaml-dev libreadline6 libreadline6-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev 

Answer 3

As a note: I had this problem with rbenv install 2.2.1 (and the libffi-dev installation was resolved), but not with version 2.2.2, which is currently missing. You should use the latest hotfix anyway to resolve this issue. I am interested to know if I have the only problem with 2.2.1, not 2.2.2.

Answer 4

I think I would add this here, as the error is the same, but the reason is different (OpenSSL). The only thing that worked (after several hours of trying a bunch of things) was to uninstall the old version of OpenSSL using homebrew.
