Hi!
I have a couple of gems installed by the InstantRails installer (and
hacked according to
mindstorms: InstantRails using existing installations (tips and tricks)).
I am wondering if now that the RC3 is out (and I would definitely like
to upgrade), than what are the steps that I must perform. I see 2
possible options:
1/ the clean scenario
- uninstall previous version
- install new one
- install old gems (if I can remember which one; is there a away to
know which gems are installed on my system?)
2/ upgrade scenario
- install the new one-click ruby installer over the old one
I guess the first scenario is the recommended one, but than is there a
way to have a list of the gems I have installed so that I can install
them back?
TIA,
./alex

Unfortunately, there is only option #1. Option #2 resulting in broken
systems to the installer checks for this and explicitly does not allow
it.
To find out what RubyGems you have installed, open a command window and
run
the command:
gem list

You will also have to look after any additional libraries not installed
via rubygems (such as with install.rb)

Thanks a lot to both answers.
