Did that. Now I have

Thank you very much. The new rubygems rocks!

I love the new auto platform feature. That's the way it should work and now 
it does.

Here is a little thing that would also be nice. Autodownload of older 
versions of a gem if a new gem requires it. Even if a newer version of the 
dependency is alreay installed:

C:\Documents and Settings\Sasa>gem install scrubyt --no-rdoc --no-ri
Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org
ERROR:  Error installing scrubyt:
         scrubyt requires RubyInline (= 3.6.3)

C:\Documents and Settings\Sasa>gem list RubyInline

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

RubyInline (3.6.4)
RubyInlineAcceleration (0.0.1)

Do you think this makes sense?
