Install problems on fedora 12

I just got set up with fedora 12 and am a new user for that distro.

I got ruby 1.8.6 installed. Then I tried to install rails using yum
which gave me rails 2.3.4. When I tried to start a rails project I had
an error saying the wrong version of rack was supplied. I tried to
resolve that with gem installs but got errors saying it couldn’t find
rubygem sources. Then I decided to see if I could install rails
through gems instead of yum, after yum remove I do this but get this
error:

sudo gem install rails --include-dependencies --debug

You’re never going to find a distro that can keep up with the speed of
Rails releases. I always go it alone and installing everything from
source, including ruby.

I do0n’t need the most recent version, I’m just trying to get
something that works. I was using rails 2.3.2 on centos, but I am
switching to fedora because I had other problems with centos, but I
never had to build stuff with compiling source code on that platform
or redhat …

Most anything BUT the latest version is exploitable.

remove the rails package…

yum remove rails #or whatever it is called
then as root…
gem update sources
gem install rails
