I don't think so.  I also get those errors, but it does not appear to affect 
anything.

I would also look at creating a .gemrc file to instruct Ruby gems to ignore 
rdoc files - you probably won't need them and it will improve installation 
time immensely.

gem: --no-rdoc

I highly recommend using RVM to enable multiple versions of Ruby and gems to 
be installed on a per project basis and without affecting the underlying 
system.
