I just built ruby 1.8.5 myself, and now rubygems can't find remote gems when I run it with sudo privs. It can find the gems when I run it as myself, but then it doesn't have priviliges needed to install the gem. Did I miss something obvious?

OK, I get:
which ruby /usr/local/bin/ruby ~ $ which gem /usr/local/bin/gem ~ $ ruby -v ruby 1.8.5 (2006-09-10) [powerpc-darwin8.7.0] ~ $ gem -v 0.9.0 ~ $ sudo gem install rake Successfully installed rake-0.7.1 Installing ri documentation for rake-0.7.1... Installing RDoc documentation for rake-0.7.1... ~ $
You didn't miss anything obvious. I'm afraid that your problem is subtle. -- A young idea is a beautiful and a fragile thing. Attack people, not ideas.

Looks like sudo might be giving you a dodgy path. Try this:

Your source cache may be corrupt.
Try:
rm /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/source_cache
(You also have one in ~/.gem/source_cache)
