Mac OS X Mavericks / Ruby 2.0 Gem::LoadError

Hello! I love Middleman and can’t start a new project without it. However, after upgrading to Mac OS X Mavericks, I can only get it to work using bundle exec middleman. That’s fine for existing projects, but I can’t figure out how to do a middleman init, since there’s no existing gemfile. Ideally, I’d like to get the conflicts resolved so that I don’t have to run middleman in the context of a bundle.

The error I get when I just fire up middleman is:

Unable to activate middleman-more-3.0.14, because middleman-core-3.2.0 conflicts with middleman-core (= 3.0.14), i18n-0.6.9 conflicts with i18n (< 0.6.2, ~> 0.6.0), coffee-script-source-1.6.3 conflicts with coffee-script-source (~> 1.3.3) (Gem::LoadError)

I’ve tried to follow advice on this forum and I’ve removed older versions of both middleman and middleman-core. Any tips, pointers, or avenues to explore would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much.

Edit: I humbly admit to not being a Rubyist and I haven’t done much with Ruby outside of Middleman. But I love Middleman’s approach to static site building, yaml metadata, and the fact that it doesn’t assume that I want to create a blog. TLDR: it’s fantastic and powerful software when I can get it running properly.

I experienced the same thing when I upgraded to mavericks Todd. Banged my head for a few days trying to work it out but what I ended doing to get it to work was remove all traces of ruby and reinstall rvm then gems.
