I posted about the flickr controller not working a few days ago… the
stack trace lead me to believe that the latest patch that was merged
might be cause for the problem…
private method gsub' called for {}:Hash (NoMethodError) /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/cgi.rb:370:in unescapeHTML’
…/config/…/components/plugins/textfilters/flickr_controller.rb:58:in
`macrofilter’
http://www.typosphere.org/trac/attachment/ticket/955/text_filter_flickr_controller.patch
It changes this line:
caption ||= flickrimage.description
to
caption ||= sanitize(CGI.unescapeHTML(flickrimage.description))
I was looking at CGI.unescapeHTML(string) and I don’t think it plays
with nulls very well… in fact, it calls string.gsub in the first line
of the method (which is what the exception in the trace came from).

Now, I’m not verse in Ruby… so I’m not sure how to go about fixing this
or if this is even the problem…
I backed up that file to the previous revision and things are working
fine…
Thanks,
Jake
