Since Rubygems does not stop to change their API and still prints lots of deprecation warnings, we have a new way to disable them.
The instructions below are for legacy reasons.
After updating Rubygems you see a wall of deprecation warnings like this:
NOTE: Gem::SourceIndex#add_spec is deprecated, use Specification.add_spec. It will be removed on or after 2011-11-01.
Gem::SourceIndex#add_spec called from /usr/local/lib/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/source_index.rb:197.
NOTE: Gem::SourceIndex#add_specs is deprecated with no replacement. It will be removed on or after 2011-11-01.
Gem::SourceIndex#spec_dirs= called from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/bundler-1.0.14/lib/bundler/rubygems_integration.rb:175
NOTE: Gem::SourceIndex#refresh! is deprecated with no replacement. It will be removed on or after 2011-11-01
Gem::SourceIndex#refresh! called from /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-2.3.11/lib/rails/vendor_gem_source_index.rb:34.
NOTE: Gem.source_index is deprecated, use Specification. It will be removed on or after 2011-11-01.

Try SlimGems, a Rubygems fork that promises to keep the Rubygems API stable. You can install it by saying
gem install slimgems
Slimgems has worked for us for many years without problems.
If you run into any trouble, you can revert to the original Rubygems by saying
gem uninstall slimgems
#If you are using Rails 2.3.11
Rails 2.3.11 can also trigger this warning. Install 2.3.12+. After installation, you need to add rdoc
to your Gemfile and change a line in your application's Rakefile: Replace require 'rake/rdoctask'
with require 'rdoc/task'
