Hi,

Now I realized that I should not forgot to announce, that in RHEL 6.5 
was released rubygems errata [1], which adds rubygems-devel subpackage 
with all rubygems macros you are used to already for several releases of 
Fedora. Namely, you should be able to use

%gem_dir

%gem_instdir
%gem_libdir
%gem_cache
%gem_spec
%gem_docdir

%gem_install

Enjoy. Special thanks goes to Ken Dreyer for pushing this update forward 
via RH customer support ;)

If somebody cares to backport these macros into EPEL 5, feel free to 
assign yourself to [2].

BTW I opened FPC ticket to update the Ruby packaging guidelines.
