Uninstall Specific Version Of A Ruby Gem

I have two versions of bundler installed on my machine—2.2.4 and 2.2.10. When I check the version of bundler, I see it references the latest one.

$ bundle --version
Bundler version 2.2.10

I want to get rid of 2.2.10 so that I can use 2.2.4 instead. This can be done by uninstalling that specific version of bundler.

To do this, specify the -v flag when running gem uninstall.

$ gem uninstall bundler -v 2.2.10
Successfully uninstalled bundler-2.2.10
$ bundle --version
Bundler version 2.2.4

Alternatively, if you want to use a different version of a gem without uninstalling the primary version, you can specify the version after the gem name when calling it.
