And I haven’t seen any update on this issue since then. But according to
this site, RSpec works under Ruby 1.9.
So Is there any “official” response on this issue?
It may generally work, but right now RSpec’s own spec suite is not
passing in 1.9. Here’s what is reported (running the specs using
“multiruby bin/spec spec”):
ruby 1.8.6
1246 examples, 0 failures, 4 pending
ruby 1.8.7
1246 examples, 0 failures, 4 pending
ruby 1.9.1
1238 examples, 49 failures, 4 pending
Note that we not only have failures, but we also get a different
number of examples reported in 1.9.1. Until these are resolved, RSpec
does not officially support 1.9.1.
If anybody is interested in helping us get there - most of the
failures are related to just a few issues, so fixing one issue might
resolve many of these failures. I’ll document the remaining issues in
lighthouse later today or over the weekend. If you’re interested and
feeling impatient, just grab the latest from git and run the specs w/
ruby 1.9 and you’ll see what’s going on.
Thanks,

Officially, right now 49 of RSpec’s own specs are failing against 1.9.
TheIt is mostly working, but there are a few subtle issues that
either need to be either fixed or formally documented as unsupported.
This is high on the list right now, but so are a couple of other
things.
If anybody is interested in helping out, we’re down to 49 failing specs.
