I''ve got a fresh Ruby/Rails install (compiled Ruby from scratch, installed latest Rubygems etc) and I have had no problems installing any gems except for when I hit ZenTest. I keep getting the following: matthew-williamss-macbook:1.8 matthewwilliams$ sudo gem install ZenTest --backtrace ERROR: While executing gem ...
