Centos Compatibility & Higher Version of Ruby Support

[francoisnicholas]

synapse version - v0.12.2.
nerve version - v0.6.0

the cookbook breaks here on centos. Im running it on centos 6.5 64 bit
Error executing action run on resource 'execute[synapse_install]'

It appeared the cookbook is looking for a higher version for ruby. Centos currently installs v1.8. It also appeared there's no easy way of installing a higher version of ruby on centos. Please how should I go about this?
