Subject: Re: rubygems support issue

Well, I've played around a bit more, still baffled:

Redcloth was working a few days ago. The only thing that's changed is I
did a gem install sqlite3-ruby


> ruby -v
ruby 1.8.2 (2004-07-29) [i386-freebsd4]
> gem -v
0.8.4
> gem list

Using -rubygems, -r rubygems, etc doesn't appear to make a difference.
