Gem and/or YAML warnings

[Daniel Berger]

Hi,

Ruby 1.8.2
Rubygems 0.8.10
Syck 0.55
Solaris 10

I installed the dbi-dbrc package via gems. However, if I run this
simple script, I get a slew of warnings if I run with -d or -w:

# gemtest.rb
require "dbi/dbrc"

djberge@~/programming/ruby-645>ruby -w gemstest.rb

I can get rid of them by doing "require 'rubygems'", followed by
"require_gem ... ", but I thought I should mention this.

Dan, I can't reproduce this here on my Mac. Is it possible that when
you aren't doing require 'rubygems', etc. that you're picking up an
old version of dbi-dbrc on your system somewhere, and that the
warnings are coming from there?

Thanks....
