Rubygem `recaptcha` isn't available after being installed.

[Thiago Martins]

Hi!

I'm trying to use the Ubuntu package `ruby-recaptcha` but, it is broken.

The rubygem `recaptcha` isn't available after `apt-get install ruby-recaptcha`, like this:

---
tmartins@ror-1:~$ sudo apt-get install ruby-recaptcha
tmartins@ror-1:~$ gem list --all | grep -i recaptcha
tmartins@ror-1:~$

tmartins@ror-1:~$ dpkg -l | grep recaptcha
ii ruby-recaptcha 0.3.6-2.1build1 all Ruby helpers for the reCAPTCHA API
tmartins@ror-1:~$
---

Then, I need to remove it by running: `apt-get purge recaptcha`, and installing it `bundle install` from within my RoR App subdir (it is registered at my Gemfile, "gem 'recaptcha', '0.3.6'").

After installing it by `bundle install`, it then becomes available:

---
tmartins@ror-1:~$ gem list --all | grep recaptcha
recaptcha (0.3.6)
---

Tks!
Thiago

Hey guys, any news about this?!

Hello, Thiago. I'm the Debian maintainer of this package. I realized by this bug that there was an invalid command in the s.files section in the gemspec. I'm right now packaging the 0.4.0 release (which support v2 ReCAPTCHA API, by the way) and it's fixed already (http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-ruby-extras/ruby-recaptcha.git/commit/?id=dbb961ab4fe8c51052f29f195f09aa98105276f7).

I'm releasing ruby-recaptcha tonight, hopefully. I think that Ubuntu will catch up after it moves to testing, in 10 days or so, and then compiled for the current 'universe' environment.

This bug was fixed in the package ruby-recaptcha - 0.4.0-1

---------------
ruby-recaptcha (0.4.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release:
    - Support for ReCAPTCHA v2.
  * Fix rails dependency to be >> 4.1, due to #754981.
  * debian/patches: Added gemspec_without_git to deal with the infamous `git
    ls-files` usual command, invalid in our chroots, and thus ship a valid
    gemspec (LP: #1400564).
  * debian/watch: Added.
  * debian/control: Bumped to 3.9.6 (no changes).
