Ruby 1.8.3 released, but Rails not liking it

Reading time: ~1 min ❓Shorter than a Rails console boot time

Ruby 1.8.3 was released this evening. Yay!

Problem is?

/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-1.1.1/lib/active_support/clean_logger.rb:13:in `remove_const': constant Logger::Format not defined (NameError)

Every Rails application that I tried with it died. So the solution?

cd ../ruby-1.8.2
./configure && make && make install

No 1.8.3 for PLANET ARGON yet.

I run Planet Argon, where we help organizations keep their Ruby on Rails apps maintainable—so they don't have to start over. I created Oh My Zsh to make developers more efficient and host both the On Rails and Maintainable.fm podcasts to explore what it takes to build software that lasts.
