25 Ruby is slotted, so you can have 2.6 and 3.0 installed together. You
26 would then need to rebuild rubygems to target both of them. There is
27 also a virtual/rubygems. I'm not really sure of it's function, but it
28 seems to just specify a minimum version of rubygems per targetted
29 version of ruby.
