Ruby on Rails - can't bundle update ffi

I need to mention ffi of version 1.0.9 (it is already mentioned in my Gemfile). The system suggested me to make "bundle update ffi", so I did it:

$ bundle update ffi
Fetching source index for http://rubygems.org/
You have requested:
  ffi = 1.0.9

The bundle currently has ffi locked at 1.1.5.
Try running `bundle update ffi`

How to break this circularity?

P.S. I have ffi 1.0.9 already installed.

You can simply do a bundle update to update Gemfile.lock.

ffi is typically a dependency used by other gems, for gems like that bundle update ffi is usually insufficient as the versions of the dependent gems have to be rechecked/updated as well.

You can delete Gemfile.lock and bundle install again.

Note: make sure your Gemfile does not specify a specific version.

Delete the Gemfile.lock file and also make sure that your Gemfile does not have any version hard-coded (i.e. specified) for ffi then bundle which will create a new Gemfile.lock upon success.
