Subject: Re: RubyGems 0.9.1

Hi,

I seem to be having some trouble with thre "-p" or "--http-proxy" option 
for installing/updating gems.

Mac OSX (Intel)
ruby 1.8.5 (2006-12-25 patchlevel 12) [i686-darwin8.8.1]
gem 0.9.1

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

gem_plugin (0.2.1)
    A plugin system based only on rubygems that uses dependencies only

rubygems-update (0.9.1)
    RubyGems Update GEM

sources (0.0.1)
    This package provides download sources for remote gem installation

Try to install/update gems:

gem install rails
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
    No route to host - connect(2)(Errno::EHOSTUNREACH)

That's OK - I am behind a firewall & proxy, so:

gem install rails -p http://192.168.1.31:3128
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (NoMethodError)
    undefined method `[]=' for #<Gem::ConfigFile:0x1085588>

gem install rails --http-proxy http://192.168.1.31:3128
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (NoMethodError)
    undefined method `[]=' for #<Gem::ConfigFile:0x1085588>

Hmmm.....

Any ideas?
