Pry command not available (Linux Mint Maya)

Question

When I enter pry to start the pry gem shell my terminal (Gnome 3.4.1.1) responds:

$ pry
No command 'pry' found, did you mean:
 Command 'pr' from package 'coreutils' (main)
pry: command not found

I installed pry using $ gem install pry

As mentioned in the title I'm running Linux Mint Maya (13).

Did you add your gem bin path to your executable search path? Possible duplicate: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/909673/how-do-i-use-gems-with-ubuntu — Cubic, Sep 06 '12 at 20:41
I check my $PATH variable and it had the bin folder included. I actually found the reason: I had to add {[[ -s "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm" ]] && . "$HOME/.rvm/scripts/rvm"} to my .bashrc which i forgot installing rvm. Everthing is working now. Thanks! — Rog0r, Sep 06 '12 at 21:57

If you've installed pry using rbenv, then you need to run the following in you terminal.

rbenv rehash

rbenv caches current Ruby executables as so-called shims.

The recommended way is to install ruby using rbenv. – Satyam Singh Dec 21 '13 at 16:05
