[Locomotive-users] Too many ruby installs on OSX Tiger

[Phil Grimm]

Hey folks,
Recent mac convert here... trying to get setup for Rails dev on OSX Tiger.

It looks like Locomotive is the environment to get on with.
The problem I'm running into is that I now have like 3 installs of ruby:

1) The 1.8.2 ruby that comes preinstalled with Tiger
2) Locomotive-embedded ruby
3) DarwinPorts-installed ruby (I installed this thinking I could uninstall
it to get rid of the old Tiger ruby :)

I should be able to uninstall the "ports" ruby easy enough, just not sure if
I should at this point.
After installing Locomotive, I was trying to get the PATH and MANPATH stuff
working with the
Locomotive ruby (and ignoring the Tiger ruby files), but never could get man
to ignore the
old ruby man pages and pick up the new ones under Locomotive.

I searched and couldn't find a (sane) way to uninstall the old (Tiger) ruby.
I supposed you could just start deleting files manually, but that sounds
risky.
Do you leave it there and hope it doesn't get in the way?

What are you all doing?
Is there a prescription for this?

Thanks,
Phil
