Subject: Re: OS X RubyGems installation question

I've never tried intalling updated Ruby versions or RubyGems *over*
the OS X install.  Perhaps you should consider what I think is a
cleaner solution -- DarwinPorts (http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/).

Once you install DarwinPorts you can then install other software
(e.g., Ruby 1.8.5 very easily.  And then you can install RubyGems.
Everything goes into /opt/local, thereby keeping your standard OS X
install "clean".

Then it's just a matter of adjusting your PATH so it picks the ruby,
irb, etc. out of /opt/local/bin.
