On my Leopard dev machine I have installed rvm+1.9.2 and everything 
seems fine, function, rubygems, environment, etc.

But when I want to install my first gem (hint: rails 3) I get the 
following error message:

$ gem install rails
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Errno::EACCES)
    Permission denied - /Users/fernando/.gem/specs

The ~/.gem directory belongs to root and seems to have been created on 
the day I reinstalled my system, so it probably belongs to the system's 
ruby. I see a similar directory ~/.subversion, with same ownership and 
date of creation, so I assume it was created by Leopard, or was it 
Macports?

Therefore can I safely chown ~/.gem, or should I destroy this directory 
and let rvm recreate a new one if needed?

Thanks
