I guess a few points may be useful
First rr isn't 'built', it's just some ruby scripts so a .deb package just installs it, creates a menu item for the gui (if installed), and depending on the deb may install some dependencies if missing.
You can actually just run it from the downloaded dir.
As far as the ppa mentioned - the ppa has split rr into 2 packages - the cli version (rubyripper) and the gui (rubyripper-gtk)
To 'see' rr you need to install rubyripper-gtk.
The gui works fine in any ubuntu release prior to lucid, in lucid it will hang for quite awhile between tracks, running rr from the cli in lucid works fine.
I see no advantage to using ruby1.9.1 for rr in lucid - it is no faster that the default 1.8 (at least here.
The gui is only available with libgtk2-ruby installed
The gui can be put to use in lucid, you can set up rr's config, encoding parameters, encoders to use, ect.
Then just rip from cli, either manually or as an 'autorip' function
This post describes setting up 'autorip' and has a 0.6 beta attached, if trying please read note (deb includes both the cli and gui versions (#86
