Hi guys, I'm involved in helping run a gem mirror for rightscale.com and we are upgrading the indexes to the new 1.2+ format. When using rubygems 1.3.x (tried 0 and 1 and even svn) I get the following fatal error when generating the index. This happens in various places (not the same place in each version).My main question is: do you know what version of gem rubyforge is using to generate their indexes or do you recommend a specific version to do so? Right now using rubygems version 1.2.0 to generate the indexes successfully completes with no errors and I'm leaning toward using that version. After looking at the indexer code and test, it seemed that using .to_s might be what is expected to cover this case, so I'm attaching the diff so you can see what I mean. ** snip example 1** WARNING: Skipping misnamed gem: /mnt/mirror/releases/200811260020/gems/zipruby-0.2.9-x86-mswin32.gem => zipruby-0.2.9-x86-mswin32 (zipruby-0.2.9-mswin32) ERROR: While executing gem ...

Your diff fixes the symptom of the problem, but not the cause. Please run:
ruby -Ilib bin/gem --debug generate_index -V --modern -d /path/to/ repository
