Are you SURE you wish to remove the installed gems for gemset 'ruby-1.8.7-p302' (/home/dexter/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.8.7-p302)?
(anything other than 'yes' will cancel) > yes
➜ ~ gem list
*** LOCAL GEMS ***
bundler (1.3.5)
bundler-unload (1.0.1)
rake (10.1.0)
rubygems-bundler (1.2.2)
rvm (1.11.3.8)
➜ ~ gem list --no-version | xargs gem uninstall -aIx
zsh: correct 'gem' to '.gem' [nyae]? n
INFO: gem "bundler" is not installed
INFO: gem "bundler-unload" is not installed

Now i can not install rails again !
➜ ~ gem rails -v '2.3.5'

USING RVM
1) Install rvm.
In the rest of the steps:
DON'T EVER USE SUDO
2) Install ruby (pick a version):
$ rvm install 1.9.3
3) Make sure rvm's current ruby is the version you want to use for your app :
$ rvm list
and if necessary:
$ rvm use 1.9.3-p194 #Sometimes you have to specify the patch number as well, e.g p194
4) Create a gemset for your app:
$ rvm gemset create myapp_gemset
5) You can list the gemsets for the current ruby version:
$ rvm gemset list
and if necessary switch to the gemset you just created:
$ rvm gemset use myapp_gemset
6) Install the rails gem:
$ gem install rails --version 4.0.0
That command will install the gem into the current gemset. You can check the version:
$ rails -v
There is a shortcut you can use to select the ruby version and a gemset you previously created for that ruby version:
$ rvm use 1.9.3-p194@myapp_gemset
You can also set a default ruby and gemset that will be selected when you open a new terminal window:
$ rvm use 1.9.3-p194@myapp_gemset --default
Or, you can set up your Gemfile in your app so that rvm switches to the specified ruby version and gemset when you change directories into your app's directory:
Gemfile:
ruby '1.9.3' #(no patch number allowed here)
#ruby-gemset=myapp_gemset
rvm will read that comment in your Gemfile, and then switch to the ruby version on the previous line and the gemset specified in the comment.

https://rvm.io/gemsets/deleting
Deleting Gemsets
When you delete a gemset, rvm will prompt you to confirm the deletion.
$ rvm gemset use albinochipmunk
$ rvm gemset delete albinochipmunk
To skip confirmation, pass the --force flag:
$ rvm gemset use albinochipmunk
$ rvm --force gemset delete albinochipmunk
By default, rvm deletes gemsets from the currently selected Ruby
interpreter. To delete a gemset from a different interpreter, say
1.9.2, run your command this way:
$ rvm 1.9.2 do gemset delete albinochipmunk
.
If you don't use a gemset at all, you get the gems in the 'default' set
.
https://rvm.io/gemsets/emptying
Emptying Gemsets
If you empty a gemset, rvm will prompt you for
confirmation. This action removes all gems installed in the gemset.
$ rvm gemset use albinochipmunk
$ rvm gemset empty albinochipmunk
To skip confirmation, pass the --force flag:
$ rvm gemset use albinochipmunk
$ rvm --force gemset empty albinochipmunk
RVM installs some gems in the global
gemset you can uninstall those gems with:
rvm @global do gem uninstall gem_name
if you do not want to use any gemsets (except the single per ruby gemset) use: this:
echo rvm_ignore_gemsets_flag=1 >> ~/.rvmrc
and from now on RVM will use only single gemset - no global
