Category: RubyGems installer (setup.rb) Group: None >Status: Deleted Resolution: None Priority: 3 Submitted By: Alois Mahdal (aloismahdal) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: Installer outputs BOM from History.txt Initial Comment: After installation, changelog item for last version is displayed to console. However, the file is in UTF-8 with BOM (byte order mark, "EF BB BF") and the BOM is output to console as well, which results in display of three "ugly" characters. Excerpt from output: -----8<----- d:\var\tmp\ror\rubygems-1.8.5\rubygems-1.8.5>ruby setup.rb RubyGems 1.8.5 installed === 1.8.4 / 2011-05-31 * 1 minor enhancement: * The -u option to 'update local source cache' is official deprecated. * Remove has_rdoc deprecations from Specification. * 2 bug fixes: [...] ----->8----- Suggestions: * Filter out the BOM on output * Convert History.txt to ANSI/ISO (History.txt seems to be the only UTF-8 file around anyway) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Alois Mahdal (aloismahdal) Date: 2011-07-10 00:36 Message: (Sorry for OT guys but the note about github should be *way* more outstanding) Moving issue to GitHub. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=575&aid=29313&group_id=126 _______________________________________________ Rubygems-developers mailing list http://rubyforge.org/projects/rubygems Rubygems-developers@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/rubygems-developers
