Changes:

=== 1.8.3 / 2011-05-19

After installing RubyGems 1.8.0 you will see deprecations when loading
your
exsting gems. Run gem pristine --all --no-extensions to regenerate
your
gem specifications safely.

Currently RubyGems does not save the build arguments used to build gems
with
extensions. You will need to run gem pristine gem_with_extension -- --build-arg to regenerate a gem with an extension where it requires
special
build arguments.
