Hi Jon, It's not a bug, it's a feature! ;-) I've deliberately chosen not to support ~/.gem based gem installation since it will inargueably lead to confusion.
People expect these gem directories to be available: system gems and bundled gems. Most users aren't aware of this third, invisible(!), gem install path and having gems installed there tends to cause a lot of trouble. - Fabien > This makes sense as I didn't run the command with sudo.
