Local install of sqlite3-ruby

Ruby
1

Hi,

i want to install sqlite3-ruby without root on my system.
I can compile it and i know how to set a custom path for install but how
can my ruby-installation find it?
Think sqlite3-ruby puts the native files into the site_ruby folder.
How can i have a “local” site_ruby folder that ruby can find and access
these files?

If you install the gem using non-root it will install it into your
“personal gem” directory, which by default is available.
