Ruby fails on require net/http

Andrej Hosna

I tried to write simple program to post results using PUT from omega the other day and put together short REST client with net/http. I have updated to latest firmware (Ω-ware: 0.1.4 b330)
Ruby version is: ruby 2.2.4p230 (2015-12-16 revision 53155) [mips-linux-gnu]
Installed ruby modules:

opkg list ruby*
ruby - 2.2.4-1
ruby-datetime - 2.2.4-1
ruby-digest - 2.2.4-1
ruby-enc - 2.2.4-1
ruby-filelib - 2.2.4-1
ruby-json - 2.2.4-1
ruby-misc - 2.2.4-1
ruby-multithread - 2.2.4-1
ruby-net - 2.2.4-1
ruby-socket - 2.2.4-1
ruby-uri - 2.2.4-1

When I try to execute super simple ruby file test_net_http.rb with contents

require 'net/http'

puts "fails load"

I get require loader error:

/usr/lib/ruby/2.2/net/http.rb:1550:in `require': failed to load encoding (Windows-31J) (LoadError)
	from /usr/lib/ruby/2.2/net/http.rb:1550:in `<top (required)>'
	from ./test_net_http.rb:1:in `require'
	from ./test_net_http.rb:1:in `<main>'

I googled around but haven't found anything useful. I even tried to force encoding of /usr/lib/ruby/2.2/net/http.rb by adding # encoding: ASCII-8BIT and specifying default encoding with -EASCCII-8BIT

Anyone else experiencing this ?

Is there a way to make this more visible to Onion team ? I think failing to require net/http is pretty serious problem for device that declares to have ruby support.
