By installing your own version of ruby you can be reasonably sure  
that everything will be correct. If you start mucking about with the  
existing version you might break something and never be able to fix  
it without re-installing.

Anyway...

It's not one file it's directory that is in the wrong place. Where is  
your ruby currently residing? If it is /usr/bin then check in /usr/ 
lib to see if there is a ruby directory.
