Gems changes?

Reading this thread, I thought I'd update my rubygems, too.

Can anyone explain the last line of the following listing, given that it
seems to say it's installing 0.8.4? Is there something extra I need to
do to start using the new version?

Sorry, I didn't think to do a "gem --version" *before* the update, so I
can't tell you which version I had previously, but I'm guessing it was
0.8.3.

By the way, I have another version of Ruby installed, so I figured
perhaps the rubygems in that installation got updated, but I checked to
see what version it is and it's not been updated, either.

a. You should run update-rubygems after the gem-install to actually
update the library.

b. use 'gem env' instead of 'gem --version' for more details.

HTH,
Assaph

Remember to run "update_rubygems".
