does the Gemfile change need to be >= as well?

[Lordnibbler]

@todd-richmond as I mentioned in #106 the Gemfile needs to be ~> 1.5 as this is latest major version that will compile on Ruby 1.8.7 AND 1.9.3, thus allowing our Travis CI build to pass. Is this solution OK for you?

[todd-richmond]

I'll give it a try in the next build - thx

[Lordnibbler]

@todd-richmond thanks, sooner you let me know sooner I can merge it 😸

[Lordnibbler]

@todd-richmond any updates? would like to merge this today

[Lordnibbler]

Going to go ahead and merge for now as its critical we get a new version of the branch cut with this change today. Please let me know if this works for you @todd-richmond

[todd-richmond]

Sorry - no luck. Bundler still wants to choose nokogiri 1.5 by default when using Ruby 2.0. However, I was able to force the newer nokogiri by setting 1.6 in Gemfile

[Lordnibbler]

@todd-richmond I think that is the best bet for now, unless this is a blocker for you for another reason? We have to allow Ruby 1.8.7 users to use Nokogiri 1.5.x still. Do you have any better ideas?

[todd-richmond]

Not a blocker for me now, but others will probably run into the same problem. 1.8.7 was retired mid last year and is strongly discouraged: https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2013/06/30/we-retire-1-8-7/

Anyone using 1.8.7 is probably gem locked to old versions of your gem as well

[Lordnibbler]

@todd-richmond OK, I will add this info to the readme as a workaround for now.
