Tried to install 1.0.16: invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII

[grimen]

$ gem install bundler
Fetching: bundler-1.0.16.gem (100%)
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)
    invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII

I get this on both Ruby 1.9.2 and 1.9.3.preview

[indirect]

Yup, sorry about that. Yanked the gem to fix.

[indirect]

Hmm. After further investigation, we're unable to reproduce this using 1.9.2 or 1.9.3 across three different machines. Perhaps your LC_LANG environment variable is set incorrectly?

[grimen]

All I know is that this never happen to me in the past for this scenario and I've installed thousands of gems through the years. Just saying. :) Let's see if someone else gets this, I'll be fine on 1.0.15 for now.

P.S. I'm on OS X 10.6.7.

What rubygems version are you using and can you provide any LANG env vars from running "env"? Can you run gem list rdoc?

[indirect]

I totally understand -- I'm just trying to figure out how to reproduce the issue, since everyone I recruited to test immediately installed without any problems. I want to make sure that this isn't a widespread problem, so if you could include your LC_LANG setting and the other information mentioned in ISSUES, I would really appreciate it.

[grimen]

LC_LANG was not set, but didn't need to have it set in the past (~years) - so don't get why it should be required as of today. Now I tried again with LC_LANG=en_US.UTF-8 set and it still gives same error.

Here's the other relevant stuff:

$ ruby -v
ruby 1.9.3dev (2011-07-31 revision 32789) [x86_64-darwin10.7.0]

... though same issue with Ruby 1.9.2 as mentioned.

$ gem -v
1.8.6

The other stuff proposed in ISSUES is not applicable, as I'm just installing the bundler gem via rubygems.

[kiote]

I have the same issue, really confusing.
MacOS 10.7 with rvm with ruby 1.9.2

[hone]

I was able to reproduce it using LANG,

$ LANG=ISO8859-1 gem install bundler
Fetching: bundler-1.0.16.gem (100%)
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (ArgumentError)
  invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII

the gems are yanked and we will release with a fix today.

[hone]

Can you guys try again with the new releases?

[grimen]

Excellent, works! \o/

[kiote]

yeah, okay now
