I followed the instructions on the guide on the official page. I get to here:
# tar zxvf rubygems-1.X.X
# cd rubygems-1.X.X
# ruby1.8 setup.rb
I unpack the archive,cd into its directory and run the command,but I get:
"./lib/rubygems.rb:12:in 'require': no such file to load --etc (LoadError)
from ./lib/rubygems.rb:12
from setup.rb:24:in 'require'
from setup.rb:24.
Sorry for being a "player who doesn't know a damn thing about what they're doing" but I can't seem to figure this one out?
