Comment 2 Martin Krauskopf 2008-07-21 20:37:32 UTC 
Could you try what result do you get when you run:

  ruby -e "require 'rbconfig'; puts RbConfig::CONFIG['rubylibdir']"

with the interpreter which caused this?

And do you see any warnings in the IDE log? Thanks.

Is this 100% reproducible? If yes, could you attach the IDE log after it happens:

Ideally with latest dev build:

Thanks for the logs, it narrowed the culprit. What the following output (or
fail) for you:

  ruby.exe -e 'require "rubygems"; puts Gem::RubyGemsVersion'
  ruby.exe -e 'require "rubygems"; puts Gem::RubyGemsPackageVersion'

where ruby.exe is the interpreter which cannot be added.

I've tweaked little bit a platform_info.rb script. So it should fail if
'rubygems' are required loaded successfully but something some other
load in Gem API then fails.
