"unknown encoding name" errors building on Debian 9 #83

Closed oddhack closed 6 years ago

oddhack commented 6 years ago

Trying to update to 1.6.11 via 'gem update' on my Debian 9 system claims to succeed, but generates 570 "unknown encoding name" errors (attached) referring to what appear to be test cases. Is this something I should be concerned about?

encoding.txt

Seeing as how these are all from the test fixture files, it shouldn't affect the installation/run.

application/x-tex is a standard MIME type so I am not sure why Debian is confused by it.

I'm unclear where the gem is getting its MIME info - /etc/mimetypes? $HOME/.mime.types? The XDG shared MIME database, which appears to be some sort of XML thing I'm unfamiliar with? If it's using the .mime.types in my $HOME that might be the issue.
