On Leopard 10.5.8 the following error message was displayed for me when executing the above mentioned commands: “requires RubyGems version >= 1.3.1″
I had success by executing the following:

sudo gem update rubygems-update
sudo update_rubygems

On Leopard 10.5.6, I executed the following which also got RubyGems to update:

sudo gem update RubyGems
sudo gem update –system

I had executed the first command in my comment before I came to this site, which caused the rubygems-update install command to fail. I hope this helps someone who may have gone the same route I did.

Thank you, been bashing my head against the gem update –system method trying to get it to work.
