Question

I am trying to install cocoapods to my MacBook Pro running with OSX 10.9.1 (new Mavericks) and after type gem install cocoapods I get the following error:

Answer 1

I was getting this error and had to completely reinstall cocoapods to fix it. Finally worked. Maybe this solution suits for anyone else.

sudo rm -rf home_folder/.cocoapods/

After that, did again

pod setup

and installed my libraries from zero, and everything worked.

Hope it helps!
