> What are the gems that don't work for you? Its mainly little annoyances, like the mysql gem was giving me grief, it was pulling strings out of the DB in ASCII even though they were UTF-8 I linked to a fixed gem in the SO post and even compiled it and published it on gemcutter. Except for that I had issues with html5 gem but migrated over to sanitize which is better and based off nokogiri. also the levenshtein gem no longer compiles the c implementation.
The other big annoyance is all the encoding hacks, I had to put this on top of my environment.rb file to get stuff to work Encoding.default_internal, Encoding.default_external = ['utf-8'] * 2 if defined? Encoding >Any thoughts of particular differences I should look for? Encoding is the number 1 issue, it bites you when you are doing regex matches sometimes as well, on top of that changes to the case ... when statement bite you but are trivial to fix also for some reason Symbol.humanize no longer works in 1.9 also trivial to fix.
