Package: rubygems
Version: 1.7.2-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Nothing special, I am not using gem often. I install "foreman" and then
noticed the problems when trying to use it.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
* What was the outcome of this action?
Using foreman
$ foreman start
Invalid gemspec in [/var/lib/gems/1.8/specifications/foreman-0.24.0.gemspec]: invalid date format in specification: "2011-10-04 00:00:00.000000000Z"
Invalid gemspec in [/var/lib/gems/1.8/specifications/term-ansicolor-1.0.7.gemspec]: invalid date format in specification: "2011-10-13 00:00:00.000000000Z"
/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:926:in `report_activate_error': Could not find RubyGem foreman (>= 0) (Gem::LoadError)
from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:244:in `activate_dep'
from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:236:in `activate'
from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/rubygems.rb:1307:in `gem'
from /usr/local/bin/foreman:18
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Foreman starting my app.
I also noticed, rubygems on wheezy is still 1.7? http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/rubygems
while on sid it is 1.8 just like all the other packages? http://packages.debian.org/sid/rubygems
But I am not sure what the version numbers mean.
Thanks a lot for looking into it! :)
