So essentially, if an tool which uses the RubyGems API wants to make gem installation transparent and non-root, it will need to set these ENV variables before invoking any API call? And, I assume, manually send the "hey you need ~/.gem/.../bin on your path" message? I guess that will work - but I'm still curious to know why this would be difficult gem_prelude.rb for 1.9. Do you have links to any threads/IRC where this was discussed? -- Chad
