Error installing kindlegen from rubygems

I am getting the following error when trying to install kindlegen. Any ideas on what could be going wrong?

$ gem install kindlegen
Building native extensions.  This could take a while...

Thanks for your report. The tarball of kindlegen for MacOS made by ZIP, but tar command cannot extract it.
Then I use unzip command on MacOS.

I was released new 2.4.1 gem. Try again later please.
