Group, I think I'm stumbling over an environment setting, but I can't see where it is. I'm trying to upgrade some Ubuntu 10 boxes that have rubygems installed via apt-get, and they are stuck on version 1.2. The gem list --remote comand doesn't work (cant remember the error now) but it's complaining about not being able to get to rubyforge,so I think the rubygems install is just too old.
Naturally, I don't have root access on these boxes, so I'd like to try and install rubygems in the user directory. It's for a class (starting Monday) so it doesn't need to be a permanent solution. I've downloaded, installed via ruby setup.rb --prefix ~/rubygems137, but when I run ~/rubygems137/bin/gem --version, I get the old version. I've tried resetting the gem_home and gem_path environment variables, but it keeps running the old version. What else?
