How to install version specified Ruby using apt - ruby

I tried to install Ruby with version specified 2.5.1 (the version is just example), and tried following script, but I got an error as follows. Is it possible to install Ruby with a version using apt installing so I can deal with Ruby version dependency issue?
$ sudo apt update ; sudo apt install ruby-full=2.5.1

E: Version '2.5.1' for 'ruby-full' was not found

You can install rbenv which is a Ruby Environment and then you can install the version of Ruby you want over it.
Refer to this answer.

The specific version of ruby you want to install has to be a package available in your Ubuntu distro's package repository. A quick way to check this is using apt list | grep ruby-full or apt list | grep ruby.
If you don't find the version you're looking for, you can add a repository and download it from there. Brightbox is a widely used repository maintaining several ruby version packages. Their installation docs should help you.
Note: I still recommend that you use a ruby version manager like rbenv or rvm.

Getting "git: command not found" in a Docker container that has git installed

I'm running the following in a Docker container (in a Gitlab CI/CD pipeline) with the python:3 image. I installed git using the following command:
apt-get update
apt-get install -y git
Based on the output, this wasn't even necessary because git was already installed. Unfortunately, I got the following output that states that the "git" command was not found even though the "git" command was used earlier in the script. Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?

Problems with the installation of VirtualBox on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS

just so you know I'm pretty new at Linux.
I just made the jump from Ubuntu 19.10 to Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS because I thought there wouldn't be a problem with VirtualBox.
When the upgrade was finished I noticed VirtualBox was gone, I tried to install it following the instruction on the official website and other sites.
I don't know what you guys exactly need to help me solve the problem so here's some informations :
Here's what appears when I do sudo apt update :

#Just Download a debian file:
https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/6.1.16/virtualbox-6.1_6.1.16-140961~Ubuntu~eoan_amd64.deb
And install with :
sudo dpkg -i virtualbox-6.1_6.1.16-140961~Ubuntu~eoan_amd64.deb
#If get's Any error
sudo apt install -f
Just add a repository to your system to download the package virtualbox needs:
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian buster main contrib non-free
And then reinstall with the command:
sudo apt install virtualbox-6.1
It worked with me.
I solved it in the following way
sudo add-apt-repository universe
sudo add-apt-repository multiverse
sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian bionic contrib"
sudo apt-get update

Trying to download the latest version of pandoc in circleci build script

I'm trying to do a conversion of my README from markdown to reStructuredText
using pandoc so I can build an egg which can be deployed to pypi. Unfortunately the version of pandoc that circleci is uing (1.17.2) is having an issue with how I have some tables structured. It looks like like if I use the latest version of pandoc (2.9.1.1) everything will work fine but I can't seem to get circleci to download the latest version.
So far I've tried using the following within my .circleci/config.yml:
steps:
- run: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y pandoc

You could use this code, which we also use with pandoc/lua-filter to always use the latest pandoc version:
RELEASES_URL='https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/releases'
# the 'latest' URL redirects to the name of the latest tag.
export PANDOCVERSION=$(curl -I "$RELEASES_URL/latest" | sed -ne 's#Location:.*tag/\(.*\)$#\1#p' | tr -d "\n\r")
# Show pandoc version in logs
echo $PANDOCVERSION

wget $RELEASES_URL/download/$PANDOCVERSION/pandoc-$PANDOCVERSION-linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar xvzf pandoc-$PANDOCVERSION-linux-amd64.tar.gz
# add executable to PATH

Upgrading python version on Bash on Ubuntu on Windows?

so I'm currently trying to upgrade the python version in the bash on ubuntu on windows subsystem. However from my understanding it is not easy to update python from the command line. Lastly, "where" exactly is my unix subsystem? For example, is there something like a unix portion on my file system, where I can just drag files into? Thanks
It is an older question, however I had to do the same thing today (use python3.6 on my windows 10 laptop).
Press Windows + R (to open the run command dialog)
Type: bash + press Enter
You will get a new windows bash prompt window.
Type first lsb_release -a to check that you run the latest bash/ubuntu environment on your Windows Machine (might be ubuntu 14.04, while 16.04 is the current one).
raz#HOSTNAME:~/myPlayground$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description: Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS
Release: 16.04
Codename: xenial
If you are running an older version upgrade by running do-release-upgrade
raz#HOSTNAME:~/myPlayground$ sudo do-release-upgrade

You can search your 'Start Menu' for 'Bash' and get the app that will open a command prompt from within Ubuntu Linux (not Unix).
AFAIK you cannot drag and drop into this from Explorer.exe but you may be able to run a Linux file app that can do this with X11 installed.
Finally, from Bash on Ubuntu command line app, you can run 'sudo apt-get install python3' to get latest for Ubuntu.
