What process do you use to fix the various problems the come about when you
update your Rails version?
Ie., when going from Rails 1.2 to 2.0/2.1 I''ve had to monkeypatch
Globalize
to make it work. 2.2.0 RC1 breaks Globalize again (though just including a
couple of the old methods makes it work that''s an unacceptable fix and
I''ll
be replacing Globalize as soon as I have the time).
2.2.0 also breaks the asset_packager plugin (AssetTagHelper has been
refactored and rails_asset_id is no longer available). I can work around
this by monkeypatching the asset_packager plugin but again it''s an
unacceptable fix.
That''s just a couple of examples of the random upgrade pains. What I
want to
know is how do other people deal with these things? Monkeypatching? Waiting
and hoping that somebody else updates the plugins? Googling for random blog
posts?
I don''t have the time to fully investigate both the plugins and the
changes
to the rails codebase to find the best possible solution so what I implement
are nasty hacks to get things working. It''s a terrible approach and
there
must be something better. How do you do it?
Cheers,
Morgan.
