> On a linux system, a user can create his own gem repository by setting the GEM_HOME environment variable (e.g./home/lacton/local/opt/gemrepository). This way, this user does not need root access to install and update gems.
> 'rake setup' assumes that users on linux will be sudoers and that they will use the root gem repository, even though the user may have set his GEM_HOME.
> I propose that 'rake setup' does not call 'sudo' if GEM_HOME is set.
