Installing Rails 1.2.6 gem doesn't pull dependencies

I recently had a need to install the Rails 1.2.6 gem (for support reasons). When I did it, the dependencies were not installed automatically, so I had to find and get the correct versions of actinomailer, actionpack, etc.

Anybody seen this behavior before and have any insight into that?

What version of RubyGems are you using to do the install? If it's before 1.2.1 (I think), you need to add the --include-dependencies switch to the gem install command.

1.3.1

That's kind of why I'm asking. I know that 1.3.1 is supposed to handle dependencies automagically.
