Rubygems under linux

[Carl_Wenrich]

I got ruby installed.

I got rubygems installed, and these messages confirmed success:

RubyGems 1.3.6 installed

RubyGems installed the following executables:
  /usr/local/bin/gem

but when I run gem list, I get this:

/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in
`gem_original_require': no such file to load -- zlib (LoadError)

If you're on ubuntu, this top google result for "ruby zlib ubuntu" might
help:
