Go to RubyForge and locate the rubygems library. There's a search field
on the main page.
Download rubygems, latest version. Extract and install as per the
README or INSTALL file that I'm pretty sure is included.
You may want to be root so that the library and scripts are placed
correctly.
You can now run, for example:
gem install markaby

If the gem is needed by other gems you should get warnings and an option
to stop the uninstalling.
There are assorted options you can pass when installing, upgrading, and
such, so try running
gem help
to learn more. And ask questions here, too, if you try but cannot
figure something out.
