<p>This is not recommended for the exact problem you are seeing. Best is to use RVM or rbenv to manage specific ruby versions for yourself.</p>
<p>I think it's now also possible to install a separate ruby version from bundler, although I have no experience with that.</p>

<p>That’s good to know, thanks a lot. I’ll try them out; it will certainly be easier than a Sierra re-install which is what I was considering.</p>
<p>Thanks again.</p>
<p>Cheers,<br>
