I'll recomend first you "backup" your current ruby directory prior
attempt to install the updated installer :-)

The problem is that some version of files that are no longer part of
1.8.6 will remain there, and maybe that can conflict on how your ruby
environment work.

Future releases of One-Click installer are planned to handle this more
properly.
