When trying to install a gem, whether using gem install or through gemfile, I get the following error :

ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'bcrypt' (>= 0), here is why:
Unable to download data from https://rubygems.org/ - SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certifi
cate B: certificate verify failed (https://rubygems.org/latest_specs.4.8.gz)

• Status changed from Open to Rejected

This is caused by changes on SSL certificates used by rubygems.org.

This is also covered in RubyInstaller's group, as sticky note and mentioned several times on RubyGems issue tracker on GitHub.
