I don't have a good answer for you yet. I wish RubyGems would honor libraries installed through traditional techniques. But, like you say, I suppose I could have two directories inside the gem awareness. Both ~/.shoes/+gem and /usr/lib/shoes/ruby/gems, roughly speaking. Either that or somehow tell RubyGems (programmatically) that hpricot and sqlite3 are already loaded. I might prefer that. _why
