Public bug reported:

`sudo gem uninstall -i /usr/share/rubygems-integration/all spring` fails
due to

```
Remove executables:
        spring

in addition to the gem? [Yn]  Y
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::FilePermissionError)
    You don't have write permissions for the 
/usr/share/rubygems-integration/all/bin directory.
```

because `/usr/share/rubygems-integration/all/bin` doesn't exist, so the
error message is misleading/wrong.
