Ruby 3.1.0 fails to install on Linux using NFS

[RandieM]

Ruby 3.1.0 build fails while installing default gems.

/tmp/ruby-build.20220104123553.6349.k7h9bp/ruby-3.1.0/lib/rubygems.rb:793:in `flock': Bad file descriptor @ rb_file_flock - /home/user/.rbenv/versions/3.1.0/lib/ruby/gems/3.1.0/specifications/default/abbrev-0.1.0.gemspec (Errno::EBADF)
