Ruby 1.9 Incompatibility Gem Hall Of Shame

Thursday, November 20th, 2008

The following gems are shamefully incompatible with Ruby 1.9, which has now been available for testing for almost a year. These are just the ones which have personally affected me; there are bound to be MANY more.

Mongrel
FasterCSV
LibIDN
EventMachine - pure ruby works but is slow

Authors: please fix your gems!

More to come as I think of them. Suggestions welcome.
