Update RubyGems to new Version on Leopard
April 3rd, 2008
RubyGems just updated to version 1.1.0. Couple of the major changes are “Index updates are much faster now” and “only updates from a latest index by default”. So, time to update.
As Leopard already has Ruby and RubyGems preinstalled (Thanks, Apple!). So the default update way:
$ sudo gem update –system
will NOT work well.
Here is what you should do on Leopard 10.5.2:
$ sudo gem install rubygems-update
$ sudo update_rubygems
Enjoy!
