Description

After installation with #7227, the default Ruby becomes 1.9.3 but should probably be 1.8. At the least, we should support switching it back, but there are a few cases where the wrong version would be loaded.

  • /usr/sbin/foreman-rake calls "/usr/bin/rake" but should be "/usr/bin/rake1.9.1"
  • postinst scripts call "bundle", but this will use the default Ruby

fixes #7970 - add and prefer /usr/bin/foreman-ruby symlink

Use foreman-ruby for bundle calls especially, so it allows the default Ruby
to vary separately from Foreman's. Set foreman-ruby to ruby1.9.1 explicitly
on Ubuntu 12.04.
