Hello Guys,
I have multiple versions of ruby installed, ranging from 1.8.5 to
1.8.6, p114 and p368.
To reduce duplication of common used gems, I set both GEM_HOME and
GEM_PATH to my user folder:
D:/Users/Luis/.gem/ruby/1.8
I can run rake or any other gem without any kind of issue.
I've noticed that when running some RubyGems test, rake is invoked,
and is failing:
18) Error:

The rake from my GEM_HOME is invoked, but looks like ENV['GEM_HOME']
and 'GEM_PATH' were tweaked, so it can no longer find that gem, thus
failing.
Can you see where and why?
test/gemutilities.rb:134 (teardown).
Is doing a cleanup, but not doing a safeguard of the values prior
resetting.
I wonder if this could affect other applications too, and what could
ge the workaround besides .gemrc, since I've also 1.9.1 and want to
avoid mixing the gem repositories between the two.
Seems reasonable.
Besides RubyGems own tests, couldn't find other being affected by
this, so is good.
RubyGems tweaks GEM_HOME and GEM_PATH to point to a temporary test
directory to avoid writing to files it shouldn't.
For tests that need rake, rake could be installed into the temporary
test directory.
