unmerge or depclean? unmerge is less safe and may leave your system in a bad state. "emerge -N" is a better way to handle this situation. > /usr/lib64/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems.rb:30:in `require': cannot load such file > -- rubygems/defaults (LoadError) This file is part of rubygems, which in turn is a dependency of ruby itself. emerge rubygems manually first.
