I would like to remove (uninstall) a particular gem. I installed the gem creator's beta copy of their next release, but it's problematic, and I neet to revert to the most recent stable version.
How might i uninstall a particular gem?

You *might* start with `gem --help`

You’ll use the ‘uninstall’ option instead of ‘install’. For example,
gem uninstall
If you used ‘sudo’ to install the gem, then you’ll have to do the
following:
sudo gem uninstall
Good luck,

If you know the version (gem list GEMNAME) then you can:
gem uninstall GEMNAME --version=VERSION
i.e.: gem list test-unit *** LOCAL GEMS *** test-unit (2.0.5, 1.2.3)
gem uninstall test-unit --version=1.2.3 Successfully uninstalled test-unit-1.2.3
