Help installing rubygems on Tiger

[Joseph Alotta]

Greetings,

I am trying to install rubygems on a clean install of Tiger. It
gives me the message that rubygems is missing. Well, that is what I
am trying to install. Please give me some help.

Hi Joe!

The problem is that you have RUBYOPT set to require rubygems, but you
haven't yet installed RubyGems.

% setenv RUBYOPT # Assuming this is how you blank out a variable in
csh---I haven't used it in a while
% sudo ruby setup.rb

Hi Chad,

That did it. Thank you.
