Hello!

I have just finished installing ruby and gem using Fink and rails using  
the new gem, but I am now receiving an error when I try to use  
script/generate:

lynxy:blog lynxy$ script/generate controller Blog  
./script/…/config/boot.rb:23: undefined method `gem' for main:Object (NoMethodError) from script/generate:2:in`require’  
from script/generate:2

I’m not entirely sure what I did wrong, but any help would be greatly  
appreciated!

Hmm, try:

# gem update --system
