I have installed the rubygem application (version 1.3.6) on a Debian
system by downloading the rubygems tar.gz archive and running the
setup.rb command.

What is the best way to _uninstall_ this application?

Run:

Delete `gem which rubygems` and along with ubygems.rb and the rubygems directory that will be alongside it.

Delete `gem which rbconfig/datadir`

Delete `which gem`

Optional:

Add this feature to RubyGems.
