Missing base64 library in Ruby1.9, cannot run cloudkit

[Bejvas Jod]

Hi,
I install cloudkit. I have followed the steps in the manual
(http://getcloudkit.com/curl.html), but when I execute "rackup
config.ru", I get this error message:

I cannot find somewhere how to fix this error in ruby 1.9, please help
me.

Thanks.

Try this at the command line:

$ irb19 --simple-prompt=> "ruby 1.9.2dev (2009-07-18 trunk 24186) [i686-linux]"

If it fails, it's probably because you have an old, development version
of 1.9. Switch forward to 1.9.1 or later, or back to 1.8.7.

Output:
LoadError: no such file to load -- base64
from (irb):1:in `require'
from (irb):1
=> "ruby 1.9.0 (2008-06-20 revision 17482) [i486-linux]"

I have installed ruby1.9 from debian lenny repositories, it's bad? Argh

Ok, i try downgrade to 1.8, but I thought that the new version will be
stable
Is any other solution other than compile new ruby?

Thanks

Install base64.rb yourself? (Into either your ruby lib dir or your app's
lib dir)

http://svn.ruby-lang.org/repos/ruby/trunk/lib/base64.rb
