I think it's mostly related to bitnami having almost entirely its own root
area below /opt/bitnami with its own lib and include stuff. It's designed
for dropping in bitnami applications via click installs, but if you want to
drop into bundler/gem stuff it just seemed to break a LOT if you wanted to
use the bundled bitnami version of ruby. I am a ruby n00b though, so I
could have just been being dumb - but there seemed to be a lot of breakage
between Ruby 1.8 and 1.9 stuff. Compared with doing "npm install" in an app
directory it always seemed to be way over complex. YMMV of course.

Matt.
