Comment 1 Marek Goldmann 2011-05-12 17:46:23 UTC
Hi Sascha,

It seems that rubygem-aws 2.5.2 is broken on Fedora 13.

What ruby version you have installed? rpm -q ruby

Comment 2 Marek Goldmann 2011-05-12 18:02:45 UTC
It seems this is a ruby-1.8.6/rubygem-aws bug.

We need to add require 'jcode' to utils.rb from rubygem-aws gem which exposes then each_char method for String.

For ruby 1.8.7 it is available by default.

Changing component as it is not really a rubygem-boxgrinder-build bug.

Comment 3 Sascha Silbe 2011-05-12 19:27:14 UTC
You answered that question yourself already, but for completeness:

silbe@bender:~$ rpm -q ruby
ruby-1.8.6.420-2.fc13.x86_64
silbe@bender:~$
