    So, I try to `rvm install 2.6.1` however i run into this compilation issue for which a correct solution hasn't yet been found, only workarounds, the most hopeful one for me seems to be this one where people report downgrading xcode to v13.6 enables Ruby 2.6 to work. However my OS reports that it's incompatible with the earlier xcode 13.6 version, so I'm now stuck. I'm not prepared to downgrade OS to try to workaround this issue due to other potential conflict and compatibility issues.
