Package: libchronic-ruby
Version: 0.2.3-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Chronic is smashing the ruby library search path with the first line
of /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/chronic.rb:
$:.unshift File.dirname(__FILE__) # For use/testing when no gem is installed
This causes problems when trying to prepend items to the library
search path from the command-line. For example, when trying to run the
sup mail client from a git checkout, sup recommends that one run:
ruby -I ./lib -w ./bin/sup
The current libchronic-ruby breaks this invocation in the case that an
older copy of sup is installed in /usr/lib/ruby/1.8, (for example from
the sup-mail Debian package).
What happens is that many of sup's files are loaded from ./lib, until
chronic is loaded. After that, subsequent sup files are loaded from
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8 and as can be imagined, that leads to lots of
failure.
Removing the line above from chronic.rb fixes this problem, (see
trivial patch below).

PS. I wanted to submit this bug upstream, but failed to find any
contact information at http://chronic.rubyforge.net. So I'm grateful
that Debian gives me a place to lodge the report for now.
