Barkeep's Ruby 1.9.3 is unable to compile on Ubuntu 14.04

[fjerhammer]

I am trying to install Barkeep on a fully updated Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS machine using the install_barkeep.sh script, but the compilation of Ruby 1.9.3-p194 fails:

Seems to have something to do with OpenSSL lacking SSLv3 support.
Is there a newer Ruby release that can be used for running Barkeep on newer distributions?
