[DRE-maint] Bug#570171: /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/active_support/test_case.rb: Depends on nonexistant "rails/backtrace_cleaner"

[Adrian Irving-Beer]

Package: libactivesupport-ruby1.8
Version: 2.3.3-1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/active_support/test_case.rb

While attempting to configure Redmine (via the Debian package), errors
were being masked by a second error:

----
no such file to load -- rails/backtrace_cleaner
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `gem_original_require'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:31:in `require'
/usr/share/redmine/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:153:in `require'
/usr/share/redmine/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:521:in `new_constants_in'
/usr/share/redmine/vendor/rails/activesupport/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:153:in `require'
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/active_support/test_case.rb:24
[...]
----

That last item (/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/active_support/test_case.rb line 24)
is the problem here, as it requires 'rails/backtrace_cleaner', which
does not exist.

I believe it ought to be requiring 'active_support/backtrace_cleaner'
instead?

(Setting the environment variable "BACKTRACE=1" worked around
this for now.)
