Rails - Oct 2005 - Rubygems, rails install issues

I''m trying to upgrade my Windows box to 0.13.1. However, everytime I
try
"gem install rails" or "gem update rails" it instead
installs
rails_analyzer_tools. I had rails_analyzer_tools installed before, so I did
a "gem remove rails_analyzer_tools" and removed all versions of it.
Tried
again -- and rubygems installs rails_analyzer_tools again instead of Rails.

I thought maybe this was a bug in rubygems, so I upgraded rubygems to 0.8.11.
Tried again. Same problem.

So then I tried "gem install rails --include-dependencies", and I get
this
error:

ERROR: While executing gem ... (OptionParser::InvalidOption) invalid option:
--include-dependencies

What the heck is going on here? I just want the most recent version of
Rails. I know I can manually download each of the rails dependencies and
install from the local gem ... but isn''t Rubygems supposed to do all
this
nice and neatly for me?

Thanks.

p.s. Here is my "gem list" resutls

I''m replying to myself because I have encountered another problem that
might
be related.

I am trying to install the login_generator gem.

`gem install login_generator`

Instead of installing the login_generator, it installs the
salted_login_generator (well, it tries, it freaks out when it starts to do
the rdoc install)

How does one actually install the login_generator?

Thanks.

I had thought that at this was supposed to have been fixed in the 
current rubygems - but I ran into the same problem recently. I followed 
advice given by Ezra Zygmuntowicz:

   gem install --version ''0.13.1'' rails --include-dependencies

and that sorted it out. (Not sure if I used the --include-dependencies 
option... the --version bit makes the difference).

Hope that works for you.
