RVM Installation Problems in Linux Mint

I was having problems installing RVM into Linux Mint, it seems that somehow RVM is/was broken for Ubuntu distros. I was having issues with RVM saying that it couldn't fetch the ruby source, and curl errors as well. Purging and reinstalling RVM:

Remove RVM:
 sudo apt-get --purge remove ruby-rvm  
 sudo rm -rf /usr/share/ruby-rvm /etc/rvmrc /etc/profile.d/rvm.sh  

Close terminal window and open a new one then reinstall RVM with:
 bash -s stable < <(curl -s https://raw.github.com/wayneeseguin/rvm/master/binscripts/rvm-installer)  

as per this StackOverflow answer solved my problems.
