This wasn't a problem for a long time, but then a major release of release of rubygems came out, and then the switch to gemcutter happened, etc. I've gotten around this by installing everything but rubygems from the regular Ruby packages from the Debian (or ubuntu) repos. I install the rubygems.org version of rubygems and everything works great.
