[Francois Marier]

Package: ruby-kramdown
Version: 1.4.2-1
Severity: important

Here's the error I got while trying to convert a kramdown document to HTML

sed -e 's/\[\[/\\[\\[/g' -e 's/\]\]/\\]\\]/g' ./spec.markdown | kramdown --parse-block-html --template='template.erb' > index.html
/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/kramdown/document.rb:56:in `data_dir': Use RbConfig instead of obsolete and deprecated Config.

	from /usr/bin/kramdown:61:in `<main>'

Steps to reproduce:

  $ mkdir test
  $ cd test/
  $ git clone https://github.com/w3c/webappsec.git
  Cloning into 'webappsec'...
  remote: Counting objects: 3738, done.
  remote: Total 3738 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
  Receiving objects: 100% (3738/3738), 3.18 MiB | 978.00 KiB/s, done.
  Resolving deltas: 100% (2183/2183), done.
  Checking connectivity... done.
  $ cd webappsec/specs/subresourceintegrity/
  $ make 

The above works fine with kramdown 1.5.0 if I install it with:

  sudo gem install kramdown
