I ran into this message today trying to install watir 1.6.5 on ruby
1.8.6.  This was on a completely fresh installation of Ruby 1.8.6
(patchlevel 111).  Hopefully you aren’t in a situation where you have
to do this, but if you do, just install an earlier version of
activesupport.  I used 2.3.9, but 2.3.10 is the last in v2.  Seems
like it’s a good thing that we are trying to get off of depending on
activesupport.

C:\ >gem install watir -v 1.6.5 --no-rdoc --no-ri
ERROR:  Error installing watir:
        activesupport requires Ruby version >= 1.8.7.

C:\ >gem install activesupport
ERROR:  Error installing activesupport:
        activesupport requires Ruby version >= 1.8.7.

C:\ >gem list --remote activesupport
