I have checked /usr/bin; there is no installation of Ruby there; it was moved to the /opt/local directory because of the Macports installation. Ruby will have to be downloaded, compiled and installed in the right directory.

Rather, you will have to reinstall it from your Mac OS X install discs — to do this, your best bet is probably an "archive and install."

See this knowledge base article and search for "Archive and Install" for details:  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1544?viewlocale=en_US

Whoever is writing tutorials that recommend modifying software installed by Mac OS X needs to stop.  And if MacPorts is actually damaging users' systems in this way, it needs to stop.  Applications running on Mac OS X must be able to run with the confidence that what is installed as part of Mac OS X itself will remain stable over time; removing items from /usr/bin behind the user and operating system's back is a very bad idea.
