Thank you for this, @pboling. It sorta surprised me, then saddened me, and then delighted me to see this in my inbox.

@JackDanger I think this will resolve the warnings people (including me) are complaining endlessly about here and here.

Can it go to rubygems.org as a patch release?

My only concern is this includes a bit more than had previously been defined in 'blankslate'. It provides _blankslate_as_name if not defined on String and Symbol classes. But I think probably not too big a deal as code will be moving to BasicObject form Ruby 2 forward...

I've pushed a new version (2.1.3) with these changes. And I took the time to add a Gemfile (finally).

I am confused now on several levels.

We were on version 3.1.2 of the gem, which was released Sep 7, 2012.

You have now released 2.1.3, which I can see on Rubygems.org as the most recently released, but it is not the 'toppermost' version, since 2.1.3 < 3.1.2.

But the VERSION file, which the gemspec reads to get the version, still says '2.1.2.4', and hasn't been touched since 2011.

@JackDanger Wat? I feel I lack some context here. :)

FWIW the dependency I have that is pulling in this gem is jimson-temp (v0.9.5). It in turn is pulled in by stripe-ruby-mock (v1.10.1.7).

The jimson-temp dependency is as follows:

    jimson-temp (0.9.5)
      blankslate (>= 3.1.2)

So, it will not let me use your just released fix. :(

@pboling This is a bit strange. It looks like the 3.x gem that snuck in there was a package of builder v 3. To fix this I've bumped blankslate's version to 3.1.3 and pushed it. Your problems should be solved!

[pboling]

Wow that's strange. So you're telling me jimson-temp may be depending in reality on builder, not blankslate at all (though the class Blankslate is provided by builder)?

I need to dig into this more. Thanks for checking.

@JackDanger I downloaded the 3.1.2 thing. It is a hackmash of builder. A very poorly packaged bundler pared down to just including the blankslate file. It was not done at all carefully, and left in the tests for the rest of builder and many references to builder source that is missing (in the Rakefile, for example). So... Kind of a shit basket of a gem.

Functionally it looks like there would be no runtime compatibility issues, so I think your latest release is all good. 👍
