Actually it's not - packages work and are the recommended way anyone
should manage things like this:
$ yum/apt install ruby rubygems
$ gem install puppet-module
Installing from source IMHO just doesn't scale.
Our even better:
package { [ "ruby", "rubygems" ]:
ensure => latest,
}
package { "puppet-module":
ensure => latest,
provider => gem,
require => Package["rubygems"],
}
Easy.
