I don't know if a development list is the appropriate place for this
so I apologise if this is going to the wrong list. This is the only
rubygems list I know of.

I've been trying to install rubygems under my home directory so it
doesn't foul up apt (im running debian testing).

I followed section 2.4 of the rubygems faq
http://rubygems.org/read/chapter/15#page101 but that didnt really
help.

When I ran gems I got a message saying that it couldn't find the rubygems.rb.

I found rubygems.rb under ~/lib which clearly wasnt where the writer
of FAQ intended it to be because he gave this for the RUBYLIB
variable:

export RUBYLIB=$PREFIX/lib/ruby:$PREFIX/lib/site_ruby/1.8

So I got gem working by adding $PREFIX/lib to RUBYLIB. However, what
I'd like to know is, is there a way of getting everything contained
under ~/lib/ruby or ~/lib/site_ruby or even ~/lib/gems (pretty much
what the faq implied was possible)?

Thanks,

Frank
