Package: libruby2.1
Version: 2.1.5-2+deb8u1
dpkg says libruby2.1 is version 2.1.5, but in
RbConfig::CONFIG['ruby_version'], and in /usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0, it says it is
version 2.1.0.
In /usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/defaults.rb, it is saying that
RbConfig::CONFIG['ruby_version'] is version '2.1.0'.
The problem, looking in '/usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0/rubygems/defaults.rb'. It is
assigning my gempath to: Gem.user_home, '.gem', ruby_engine,
RbConfig::CONFIG['ruby_version'], and RbConfig::CONFIG['ruby_version'] is
equal to '2.1.0
Now. I have ruby 2.1.3, and my gempath is: /home/shawn/.gem/ruby/2.1.3'
because the package 'ruby2.1' is installing to ~/.gem/ruby/2.1.3.
Now why is there a /usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0 on my system saying my ruby version
is '2.1.0', and saying that my gempath is ~/.gem/ruby/2.1.0?
/usr/lib/ruby/2.1.0 is coming from debian package 'libruby2.1', and my
debian package 'ruby2.1' is ruby 2.1.3, and actually installing the gems to
~/.gem/ruby/2.1.3.

Let me know if you have any questions, or if I made any mistakes.
