== DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RubyGems is a package management framework for Ruby.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This gem is an update for the RubyGems software. You must have an
|
|
|
|
installation of RubyGems before this update can be applied.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See Gem for information on RubyGems (or `ri Gem`)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To upgrade to the latest RubyGems, run:
|
|
|
|
|
2010-02-21 21:52:35 -05:00
|
|
|
$ gem update --system # you might need to be an administrator or root
|
2009-12-08 02:19:09 -05:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: RubyGems 1.1 and 1.2 have problems upgrading when there is no
|
|
|
|
rubygems-update installed. You will need to use the following instructions
|
|
|
|
if you see "Nothing to update".
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you have an older version of RubyGems installed, then you can still
|
|
|
|
do it in two steps:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ gem install rubygems-update # again, might need to be admin/root
|
|
|
|
$ update_rubygems # ... here too
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you don't have any RubyGems install, there is still the pre-gem approach to
|
|
|
|
getting software, doing it manually:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Download from: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=126
|
|
|
|
2. Unpack into a directory and cd there
|
|
|
|
3. Install with: ruby setup.rb # you may need admin/root privilege
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|

|
