Hi Ilya,
Actually, if you look at that link that Jens posted, RMagick doesn't
overwrite the String#dump method;
"Of course RMagick doesn't intentionally alter String.dump,
and your example doesn't even use RMagick for anything."
And neither does Ferret, although I can certainly see why people would
think it did. Believe me, I understand your frustration. If I could
find the problem I would. I'll give it a try on my laptop and see if I
can reproduce the problem there. Perhaps you could try asking on the
One-Click Ruby list or on the ruby-talk list.
I'll keep trying to find the problem at this end too.
Cheers,
Dave
