git - Can't update RVM - "fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'http'"

I'm running RVM 1.1.6 on Ubuntu 8.04 and all of a sudden I can't update to the latest version anymore.

~ rvm get head

Original installed RVM version:

rvm 1.1.6 by Wayne E. Seguin ([email protected]) [http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/]

fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'http'

Installed RVM HEAD version:

rvm 1.1.6 by Wayne E. Seguin ([email protected]) [http://rvm.beginrescueend.com/]

Googling for "fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'http'" just gave me a few results, it seems like earlier versions of Git didn't support HTTP, but my Git version is fairly recent.

~ git --version
git version 1.7.3.2

Any ideas would be appreciated!

I ran into the same issue and it seemed that the git version was missing curl and expat support. I could resolve it by compiling the git version myself.

sudo apt-get remove git-core
wget http://kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/git-1.7.3.5.tar.gz
sudo apt-get build-dep git-core
tar xvzf git-1.7.3.5.tar.gz
cd git-1.7.3.5/
./configure --with-curl --with-expat
make
sudo make install
  1. Remove the installed version
  2. Download the latest .tar
  3. Install all mandatory dependencies (maybe obsolete, as you had it already running)
  4. Un-tar it
  5. Configure the make-file with curl and expat extension
  6. Install it
