I keep getting this error when attempting to install just about anything. I can't find anything about it via google.

Thanks in advance.

I can't update my gems to 1.2

I have tried about everything. gem update --system fails

early in the --debug I get: "invalid Gem::Specification format ["1.2.0", 3, "flow"....."

followed by a series of errors and then it finally says: nothing to update

I did an update of ruby to no avail sudo gem update ruby It did update a lot of stuff, but gem update --system still fails Gems updated: columnize, linecache, ruby-debug-base, ruby-debug, columnize, linecache, ruby-debug-base, ruby-debug, ruby-debug-base, ruby-debug-ide

Eric Hodel's page doesn't mention anything except gem update --system

me => :stuck

OK, I found it sudo gem install rubygems-update then sudo update_rubygems

This was on Ubuntu Hardy Heron.
