I tried to install a gem with RailsPortable (20080612 ZIP build) after successfully installing on my USB key. I tried to install the gem with the following command.

gem install 'pdf-toolkit'

I receive the following response.

ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteSourceException)
HTTP Response 302

Other Rubyists in similar situations report this occurs when gem itself is outdated. Installing it lo

The current release is 1.3.7, and the packaged version, as described below, is 0.9.4. Is there still active development on RailsPortable? If so, how can I work with you to update the build process?

F:\PortableApps\RailsPortable>gem env
RubyGems Environment:
- VERSION: 0.9.4 (0.9.4)
- INSTALLATION DIRECTORY: F:/portableapps/RailsPortable/App/Rails/lib/ruby/gem
s/1.8
- GEM PATH:
- F:/portableapps/RailsPortable/App/Rails/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
- REMOTE SOURCES:
- http://gems.rubyforge.org

Is it possible to update the build to fix this problem? In the meantime is there a way that I can update gem inline to resolve the issue or will this not work with RailsPortable? I am unfamiliar with the exact build process.
