[Rubygems-developers] Error while executing gem

[Joris Verboomen]

Thanks Jim,

This fixed it.  After I deleted the source_cache file
I was able to run gem update --system to upgrade
rudygems to 0.9.1 without any problems.  Is this
something that keeps coming back ?  If so, any ideas
on what causes it ?

Thanks !
