okay, first of all, you could solve all this issues easily by using rvm (user installation), see http://rvm.io, if that is not an option, you could try using project-specific gem paths. for example i have the following bundler config file (~/.bundle/config)

BUNDLE_PATH: .bundle
BUNDLE_DISABLE_SHARED_GEMS: "1"

which causes bundler to install all gems in a .bundle sub directory (inside your project folder, where you run bundle install). now, if you remember to use bundle exec for your bins (e.g. cap(istrano)), you're fine.

if you somehow f*cked up your bundler / cache, try deleting the .bundle folder (in your project folder)
