RubyGems 0.9.4.6 is a beta release for the upcoming 0.9.5 which adds
several new features and fixes several bugs.
To upgrade to the beta:
gem update --system --source http://segment7.net/
A tar.gz and .zip of the beta can also be downloaded for manual
installation:
http://segment7.net/temp/rubygems-0.9.4.6.tgz
http://segment7.net/temp/rubygems-0.9.4.6.zip
Unpack either and run ruby setup.rb.
To file bugs:
http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=add&group_id=126&atid=575
When filing a bug, gem env output will be helpful in diagnosing the
issue.
If you find a bug where RubyGems crashes, please provide debug
output. You can do that with gem --debug the_command. For example:
$ gem --debug unknown_command
Exception RuntimeError' at [...]/rubygems/command_manager.rb:114 - Unknown command unknown_command ERROR: While executing gem ... (RuntimeError) Unknown command unknown_command [...]/rubygems/command_manager.rb:114:in find_command’
[…]/rubygems/command_manager.rb:103:in process_args' [...]/rubygems/command_manager.rb:74:in run’
[…]/rubygems/gem_runner.rb:39:in `run’
/usr/local/bin/gem:22
== Changes Since 0.9.4.5
-
gem update won’t install gems multiple times (due to dependencies)
-
gem.bat and bin stubs on mswin platforms are improved and compatible
with the One-Click Installer
-
gem install no longer installs dependencies for old versions of a
gem
- Removed gem* commands are now replaced with stubs that warn
- RubyGems now installs correctly with RUBYOPT=-rubygems
For the rest of the updates since RubyGems 0.9.4, see the RubyGems
Beta 0.9.4.5 release notes:

FWIW, seems to still identify itself as version 0.9.4.6.
Hi Eric,
-
gem.bat and bin stubs on mswin platforms are improved and compatible

I am getting:
C:\Documents and Settings\Sasa>gem env
E:/Develop/ruby/bin/gem.bat:19: uninitialized constant Gem::GemRunner

Backup your gem.bat file to bat.orig and replace it with this:
@ECHO OFF
IF NOT “%~f0” == “~f0” GOTO :WinNT
@“C:/ruby/bin/ruby.exe” “gem” %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
GOTO :EOF
:WinNT
“%~d0%~p0ruby.exe” “%~d0%~p0%~n0” %
Lemme know if that works.
Regards,
Dan

I’m sorry, I meant to say that you can run gem instead of gem.bat
to get this information. I think it is ruby c:\ruby\bin\gem env.

Sasa, what are the contents of your current gem.bat file?
Did you tried with the one Daniel B. provided?
On which path is installed Ruby? C:\Ruby or C:\Program Files\Ruby?
I’m sorry, I meant to say that you can run gem instead of gem.bat to
get this information. I think it is ruby c:\ruby\bin\gem env.
Of course, I should have thought of that.
Here we go:

That mean you solve the gem error you was having 
Please, do the same steps to update rubygems:
ruby e:\Develop\ruby\bin\gem update --system --source
http://segment7.net
In that way you will grab the new version that features the corrected
.bat files
If you find that some gems don’t work, try reinstalling them (gem
install ).
With latest release some of the issue with the stub scripts for Windows
got fixed.

Thank you very much. The new rubygems rocks!
I love the new auto platform feature. That’s the way it should work and
now
it does.
Here is a little thing that would also be nice. Autodownload of older
versions of a gem if a new gem requires it. Even if a newer version of
the
dependency is alreay installed:
C:\Documents and Settings\Sasa>gem install scrubyt --no-rdoc --no-ri
Bulk updating Gem source index for: http://gems.rubyforge.org
ERROR: Error installing scrubyt:
scrubyt requires RubyInline (= 3.6.3)

RubyInline (3.6.4)
RubyInlineAcceleration (0.0.1)
Do you think this makes sense?

I don’t know if that’s ok to do, and why scrubyt stick to = 3.6.3 of
RubyInline?
I haven’t compared with previous behavior of RubyGems, but guess that
doesn’t have changed.
Maybe a Feature Request at the RubyForge Tracker?

I see the problem Sasa is having:
His .bat file are wrong. Ruby is reporting gem.bat error on line 19…
and the new gem stubs don’t have 19 lines, nor the ruby code injected.
Sasa: please copy & paste the code Daniel provided and replace the
current gem.bat with it.
That will fix the error.

This is a bug.
Before submitting let me add this:
G:>gem install RubyInline --no-rdoc --no-ri -v 3.6.3
Installing gem RubyInline-3.6.4
Successfully installed RubyInline-3.6.4
ERROR: could not find 3.6.3 locally or in a repository
1 gem installed
Seems like the 3.6.3 version doesn’t even exist.
Do you still need me to add this bug to the tracker?

Try doing the version part between single quotes:
G:>gem install RubyInline -v ‘3.6.3’ --no-rdoc --no-ri
Installing gem RubyInline-3.6.4

It yelling that gem named ‘3.6.3’ don’t exist, but checking the mirror
of gems, there is a gem for 3.6.3:
http://rubyforge.vm.bytemark.co.uk/gems/RubyInline-3.6.3.gem
Try doing the version part between single quotes:
gem install RubyInline -v ‘3.6.3’ --no-rdoc --no-ri
Seems odd, I’ll check and see if can reproduce this too.
