Problem with gem install, rubygems 0.9.0

No, I installed it in /usr/local. /home/local/src/ruby is just a
directory where I store source files. The 516 is just the command
number.

I get this error regardless of where I run this command.

Just curious, it looks like you installed Ruby into your home
directory (~/local/src/ruby516) -- why then run gem via sudo?
