I wanted to install sass version 3.2.0 alpha.

I first ran sudo apt-get install libhaml-ruby1.8, which is what the console recommended It successfully installed, but it installed an older version of sass.

Just in case, I tried installing it via rubygems: 

sudo apt-get install rubygems1.8
sudo gem install sass

This just reinstalled sass 3.1.17. As per the recommendation here, I tried running the following:

sudo gem uninstall -Iax sass
sudo gem install sass --pre

This stated that sass 3.2.0 alpha was successfully installed. However, sass no longer seems to work at all. Typing

sass --watch styles.scss

...returns...

The program 'sass' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
suto apt-get install libhaml-ruby1.8

So now I've gone full circle. What can I do to get sass working from the console?

  • gem and distribution package management are not the same thing. i already did by civic duty on PPAs today – RobotHumans May 05 '12 at 04:38
  • @aking1012: Ok, thanks for the hint -- I'll do some more googling. Could you perhaps link to where you already talked about PPAs? – Michael0x2a May 05 '12 at 05:55

You need to add /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/ to your path
