That error message is a little confusing as well.  Notice the version 
numbers.  The error message says that a program named 
rubygems-update-1.0.0 was successfully installed(downloaded?).   Then it 
says that something is "Updating version of RubyGems to 1.0.1", and 
while attempting to do that, a program called rubygems-update-1.0.1 
couldn't be found.   But the update program that was downloaded is 
version 1.0.0, but the error message says that something is looking for 
an update program with version 1.0.1.  Here is what the directory 
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/ has in it:

/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems$ ls
fastercsv-1.2.1         rake-0.7.3              sources-0.0.1
json-1.1.1              ruby-json-1.1.2
libxml-ruby-0.5.2.0     rubygems-update-1.0.0

There is no file named rubygems-update-1.0.1, and why should there be 
when the message says that rubygems-update-1.0.0 is what was 
"installed".
