[DRE-maint] Bug#649775: Bug#649775: rbenv: Does not work with non-root installed gems

[Brandon Simmons]

I don't seem to get the shims in place when I gem install passenger
from another directory either (where rbenv uses the global default
ruby 1.9). I've looked around to see if I may have configured
something in a funny way in the past, but I'm stumped. Thought I
should point out that I also have this in my .zshrc

    eval "$(rbenv init -)"

I don't really have any gems that I don't mind blowing away and
re-installing later, if you think some sort of remove --purge of my
ruby crap might help.

Also, please let me know if you'd like me to file a new bug, as I was
mistaken that this is related specifically to locally-installed gems.

Thanks
