Forum: Ruby iconv will be deprecated

Coming at this again:

thufir@dur:~/ruby/nntp$
thufir@dur:~/ruby/nntp$ ruby nntp.rb
/home/thufir/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.9.3-p362/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/
rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require': iconv will be deprecated in
the future, use String#encode instead.
thufir@dur:~/ruby/nntp$
thufir@dur:~/ruby/nntp$ cat nntp.rb
require 'rubygems'
require 'net/nntp'

Net::NNTP.logger = Log4r::Logger.new 'mylog'
nntp = Net::NNTP.new

this is a problem with the underlying gem, net/nntp?  Looking at:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8148762/iconv-d...
ruby-1-9-3/10258931#10258931

that's the inference which I draw.



thanks,

Thufir

Its not a problem. Its a warning / notification.
