No, you're not. It's not even the best solution in this case. I'd install the rbenv-binstubs plugin: https://github.com/ianheggie/rbenv-binstubs https://github

No, you're not. It's not even the best solution in this case. I'd install the rbenv-binstubs plugin: https://github.com/ianheggie/rbenv-binstubs https://github.com/ianheggie/rbenv-binstubs And the rbenv-gem-rehash plugin: https://github.com/sstephenson/rbenv-gem-rehash https://github.com/sstephenson/rbenv-gem-rehash ... and let them take care of setting the local paths, and you never have to generate binstubs manually either. (YMMV, of course, but this works pretty well)
