Hello everyone,
I'm trying to run a script on a remote FreeBSD server. I have user access only. The server runs precompiled ruby 1.8 with no rubygems installed. I installed rubygems on my $HOME and setup the env accordingly. Everything worked until I got to the point where I must use the 'twitter' gem.
Apparently 'twitter' gem requires 'json' or 'yajl-ruby' gems, which both for some reason try to chgrp/chwon the installation files. Here are the logs:

- --------
The gem 'yajl-ruby' fails with the exact same error.
