I have successfully installed ruby1.9.1 but after downloading the .tgz archive offered here and doing
sudo ruby1.9.1 setup.rb
I get this:
/home/elliot/Downloads/rubygems-1.4.1 (2)/lib/rubygems/source_index.rb:62:in `installed_spec_directories': undefined method `path' for Gem:Module (NoMethodError)

Why is installing RubyGems with Ruby1.9.1 so painful? How can I install it correctly? Thanks in advance, ell.
