Some of you may know about this longstanding issue (at least since 0.9.2), where a clean, initial install with no pre-existing source_cache file causes no gems to be found:
http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=9679&group_id=126&atid=575 $ sudo rm /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/source_cache Password: $ sudo gem install rake Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::GemNotFoundException) Could not find rake (> 0) in any repository I found a simple solution to this, and the patch is attached. It's also in the tracker issue, but I don't know how often tracker is checked. Explanation in the tracker.
