  I can reproduce this. As the version in sarge works fine, this is a
  regression, and thus I'm raising the severity this bug to RC (with the
  approval of a member of the Release Team).

  I've reasigned to libruby1.8 too, since that's where the problem is.
  Downgrading libruby1.8 to 1.8.1+1.8.2pre4-1 is a temporary workaround.

  Thanks for reporting.

I get this error when I try to launch irb1.8:

$ irb1.8

        from /usr/bin/irb1.8:10:in `require'
        from /usr/bin/irb1.8:10

I used it yesterday, so it broke with the upgrade to 1.8.2-1

I'm using version 1.8.2-1 of ruby, too, on x86.
Thanks.

Hi

I found a patch mentioned which may solve the problem quickly (and
it is small).
See: http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-core/4101

I've this is already known to the maintainer, then I have not said a
thing.

Greetings,
