If you don't have RubyGems installed, you can still do it manually:
* Download from: https://rubygems.org/pages/download
* Unpack into a directory and cd there
* Install with: ruby setup.rb # you may need admin/root privilege
For more details and other options, see:
ruby setup.rb --help
Changes:
* Bug fixes:
* Reverted automatic upgrade to HTTPS as it breaks RubyGems APIs. Fixes
#506 by André Arko
* Use File.realpath to remove extra / while checking if files are
installable. Issue #508 by Jacob Evans.
* When installing RubyGems on JRuby, the standard library is no longer
deleted. Fixes #504 by Juan Sanchez, #507 by Charles Oliver Nutter.
* When building extconf.rb extensions use the intermediate destination
directory. This addresses further issues with C extension building.
* Use the absolute path to the generated siteconf in case the extension
changes directories to run extconf.rb (like memcached). Fixes #498 by
Chris Morris.
* Fixed default gem key and cert locations. Pull request #511 by Samuel
Cochran.
