RVM fails install hook on first run 100% of the time

[Charles Butler]

RVM is returning an exit code of 1, and this appears to be a recent'ish change to the RVM tree.

Oh the irony, rvm, the tool that helps you manage multiple versions of ruby
needs your assistance to manage itself.

This works as is, but the problem is - when you do not specify a repository the logic in the charm doesn't account for a sane default and the RVM installation tanks.

If you examine this sample bundle, you will see that it does indeed deploy properly. You'll need to "seed" the deployment with a config.yaml.

I'm leaving this bug open as an action item to update the default behavior with a more recent copy of ruby, and to gracefuly do nothing when its not configured as we would expect.

Actually this was a temporary bug in rvm, and the above described problem should be a new bug. Closing as invalid.
