Is Leopard's gem broken and can it be updated? > I reproduce the problem: $ sudo gem install gosu Password: Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org Select which gem to install for your platform (universal-darwin9.0) 1. gosu 0.7.7 (mswin32) 2. gosu 0.7.6.1 (mswin32) 3. gosu 0.7.6 (mswin32) 4. gosu 0.7.5.1 (mswin32) 5. Skip this gem 6. Cancel installation Only mswin32 versions are shown. I don't know why, but I don't think it is a problem with the Leopard installation of RubyGems. You should definitely move the discussion to the RubyGems list. Laurent
