Scott,
Don''t apt-get install rails. Just get the dependencies you need for
rails via apt-get and then install gem from source. Then use gem to
install rails and related ruby code. Gem handles ruby packaging a whole
lot better than apt does. As for fixing your situation, do a clean
uninstall of the broken packages and start again as suggested.
This is what I''ve always done on Debian (and derived - eg Ubuntu)
distros.
Hope this helps,
Nicholas
