Gems on Debian

Hi,

after installing rubygems package in Debian, i can’t seem to use the
installed gems via “sudo gem install” although they install correctly.

I believe it is related to a path issue. What is the better (correct)
way to make it work ?

thank you,

This may be a dumb question, but I’ve seen a lot of people missing
this, so, are you using the require command like this (the correct
way):

require ‘rubygems’
require ‘’

It seems that you’re confusing the installation of gems and the use of
them.
Gem installation is done with

sudo gem install

you can easily test if that works by running ‘gem’ from the shell (if it
doesn’t, according to packages.debian.org, the gem binary is installed
in
/usr/bin where it should be).

In another posting it was pointed out already how to use gems after
installing
them so I won’t repeat that here.
