Same issue with Ubuntu 14.

I did a little Googling and found a recommendation to install Ruby 1.9.1-dev (apt-get install ruby1.9.1-dev) and then ran gem install json -v 1.7.7. I was able to install Json 1.7.7 according to my output, but when I re-ran the autoinstall script, it died on the same error.

Sorry I don't have any great wisdom...I plan on sending the contents of the autosnorby and autosnort log files into da677.
