Summary: Gem installer places a mis-named *.rb file in /usr/local/lib
Initial Comment:
I have been having some trouble installing rubygems on a new system. The
following error I encountered:
# gem
/usr/local/bin/gem:8:in `require': no such file to load -- rubygems (LoadError)
from /usr/local/bin/gem:8
After looking around, I found this under /usr/local/lib:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29096 Jan 19 18:32 rubygems.rb
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 268 Jan 19 18:32 ubygems.rb
the second file should not be there and I have no idea how was created.
Removing the obviously misnamed-file solved the problem.
The command I used to install:
ruby setup.rb --prefix=/usr/local
This applies to the latest version of rubygems-1.3.5 on RHEL 5.4.
