Hi everybody,
thank you for advice. Unfortunately I didn't managed to do what I planed. In
fact I tried using Debian pinning which allowed me to upgrade ruby gems using
the -t option (manualy). -t was needed and I didn't managed to avoid it.
Unfortunately Debian's runbgems is highly modified. Using the upgraded rubygems
I couldn't install a gem called buildr only if I manually installed each of his
dependencies(more than 15 gems) in order to have the proper version.
All this took me one and half days of work (I am a Debian beginner). I am not
sure if Debian's policy is the good one, but it doesn't work for me. I simply
may not have the necessary skills for the moment.
In the mean time I modified my bootstrap script in order to install ruby and
rubygems from source (without apt-get). I really hope that a cleaner solution
exists and I am looking forward to find it ;)
