[Chris Eppstein]

remove the chriseppstein-compass gem. and haml-edge.

sudo gem uninstall chriseppstein-compass

sudo gem uninstall haml-edge

After that the normal instructions should work. let me know if you continue to have problems and let me know what they are ;)

That is not an issue of Compass, but rather one specific to both
Debian and Ubuntu. Both systems policies disallow executables that are
not managed by the system package manager aka dpkg on the PATH, thus
your gem installation will work fine, but your gem commands never will
unless you modify your PATH.

If you use Ruby 1.8.x on Ubuntu, you may want to create a the file
`/etc/profile.d/rubygems1.8.sh` containing

PATH=$PATH:/var/lib/gems/1.8/bin:$HOME/.gem/ruby/1.8/bin

The next time you log in, all you Ruby gem executables will work, both
local gems and global gems.

Enjoy!
