So I"m sure someone has come across this before...but how do you fix the gem_original_require problem?
I get this when trying to install gems: /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:27:in `gem_original_require'': no such file to load -- rdoc/rdoc (LoadError) The trouble is, I also get it when trying to install rubygems...so I wound up installing 0.9.4. I can''t seem to get an earlier version on the machine... Any ideas?
