[DRE-maint] Bug#662229: mongrel-cluster: breaks mongrel_rails

[Antonio Terceiro]

Package: mongrel-cluster
Version: 1.0.5-5
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Having mongrel-cluster installed, running mongrel_rails in a mostly
empty rails app crashes:

/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems/source_index.rb:76:in `_deprecated_load_specification': uninitialized constant Gem::Path (NameError)
	from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems/deprecate.rb:39:in `skip_during'
	from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems/source_index.rb:75:in `_deprecated_load_specification'
	from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems/deprecate.rb:63:in `send'
	from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems/deprecate.rb:63:in `load_specification'
	from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gem_plugin.rb:114:in `load'
	from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gem_plugin.rb:113:in `each'
	from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/gem_plugin.rb:113:in `load'
	from /usr/bin/mongrel_rails:279

If I remove mongrel-cluster, mongrel is able to start.

This problem might be caused by libgemplugin-ruby, since mongrel-cluster seems
to be the only "gem plugin" packaged in Debian, and its mechanism is not
triggered if there are no "gem plugins" installed (the case when I remove
mongrel-cluster).
