Summary: rubygems-update now depends on a new version of hoe redering it useless
Initial Comment:
I normally user rubygems-update to update gems in Debian installations, but now
that's no longer possible, it depends on hoe >= 2.8.0:
~# /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/update_rubygems
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:578:in `report_activate_error': Could not find
RubyGem hoe (>= 2.8.0) (Gem::LoadError)
which depends on RubyGems >= 1.2.1
:~# gem install hoe --version=2.8.0
ERROR: Error installing hoe:
hoe requires RubyGems version >= 1.3.1
which isn't what Debian comes with:
~# gem --version
1.2.0
That made rubygems-update useless for me :(

Message:
If you're in debian, you should follow the debian-way to update packages, not
using gem update --system, which was intentionally disabled by them
Now, you can: wait for them to update it, or do it yourself.
