just tried ruby/rails/instiki on debian testing (squeeze)
besides the fact that debian seems to be a bad platform choice to run ruby (rubygems cannot be updated with gem's internal gem update --system command and is on version 1.2, which renders it unusable for rails 2.3.2) the same reported issue as on ubuntu just occured:

/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.2/lib/initializer.rb:269:in `require_frameworks': no such file to load -- net/https (RuntimeError)

so the issue affects debian and ubuntu.

apt-get install libopenssl-ruby
also did fix this issue.

see this topic on the rubygems madness on debian:

Right.

I believe

sudo apt-get install ruby ruby1.8-dev libopenssl-ruby rubygems swig libsqlite3-ruby1.8 flex bison

gets you everything you need to install/run itex2MML and Instiki.

In particular, you don't need a GEM installation of Rails.

On the other hand, to run the upgrade script

    http://golem.ph.utexas.edu/instiki/show/Upgrading

does require rake, which probably does need to be installed via a GEM.

This is not the only package that you need to install, in order to run Instiki on Ubuntu, so I don't think adding it to the list of required packages is a big deal (and does no harm on Debian, for that matter).
