How to uninstall ruby installed using ruby-build

Question

I've installed ruby-1.9.2-p290 using ruby-build. I used the command ruby-build 1.9.2-p290 ~/.rbenv/versions/1.9.2-p290

Now, How do I uninstall this version of ruby?

Thanks.

ruby-build now adds an uninstall command to rbenv to handle the removal of ruby versions, if you want to avoid manual rm -r (which might be considered risky). For removing ruby version 1.9.2-p290 you would run the following:

rbenv uninstall 1.9.2-p290
