I recently upgraded one of our puppet agent servers to use rubygems 2.0.0. 
 When I run 'puppet agent --test' after the upgrade it complains that there 
is an invalid option with using --include-dependencies switch (output 
below).  Is there a way to pass arguments to puppet when using gem as the 
package installer to use another argument?

Eg. output

[root@vm1 ~]# puppet agent --test

Somehow it looks hard coded into the gem.rb file

  def install(useversion = true)
    command = [command(:gemcmd), "install"]
    command << "-v" << resource[:ensure] if (! resource[:ensure].is_a? 
Symbol) and useversion
    # Always include dependencies
    command << "--include-dependencies"


Thanks,
