Ruby, Rails and Tiger

I read a lot about Ruby and Rails in the last few weeks and I have been interested in both for a while now. A few days ago I stumbled across an interesting blog posting that informs about the trouble with Ruby after upgrading to Tiger on Mac OS X.
The author wrote a script that will fix those bugs he is talking about. While the article also says that it will install rails via ruby gems this is no longer true. It will only install ruby gems. If you like to install rails later then just type gem install rails and you will then have to accept installing a few dependencies.

It really works fine for me on Tiger and as you can read in the comments it probably should even work with Jaguar and installed Ruby in version 1.8.

It's a shame I have to learn that much right now for the written examinations, because it would be so much more fun playing around with RubyOnRails of course.
