Depending on what you are doing you may not to do anything. What gem
is saying is that since you didn't run it with sudo it couldn't
install the gem in the usual location so it stashed it in your home
folder instead. It is also warning you that if the gem had an
executable (eg the rails gem provides the rails executable) that
executable is not in a folder that is part of PATH. You could
uninstall gems installed like this and install them again using sudo
gem install ... if this is worrying you
