I recently updated my gems and gem command with:
sudo gem update --system && gem update
gem list
showed no local gems
I installed a new gem
gem list showed just the newly installed gem.
My apps work fine (as far as I can tell).
gem env
- GEM PATHS:
- /usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.8
- /home/username/.gem/ruby/1.8
/usr/lib64/ruby/gems/1.8/gems
2 gems listed
/home/mikej1968/.gem/ruby/1.8/gems
0 gems listed
I think this folder is created when I used install gem instead of SUDO
install gem (?)
My gems are in:
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems
Other info:
which ruby
/usr/bin/ruby
which gem
/usr/bin/gem
What is the best way to keep everything running smoothly and to be
able to list gems?
Many thanks,
Mike

When I use Ruby Version Manager (RVM), I tend to use the following: gem install <gem-name> When I install gems for the system version of Ruby, I tend to use the following: sudo gem install <gem-name> In short, one needs to be consistent in your installation practice.

Thanks for the reply. I have always installed gems with sudo gem install <gem-name> except on the odd occasion when I forgot the sudo. The problem is that they are now going to a different location.

Really appreciate the help here. Fedora release 11 (Leonidas) Looks like I may have 2 versions of gem command: /usr/bin/gem /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rubygems-update-1.3.5/bin/gem gem -v 1.3.5 Looks like the recent update to 1.3.5 went to another directory. Not sure why - hope this provides a clue, more thanks, Mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
