For me it sufficed to simply run  gem update

Install rubygems-update  gem install rubygems-update update rubygems gem update --system   run this commands as root or use sudo

I found other answers to be inaccurate outdated  Best is to refer to the actual documentation   Short version  in most cases gem update --system will suffice   You should not blindly use sudo  In fact if you re not required to do so you most likely should not use it
