Ruby 1.9 doesn't support Unicode normalization yet

Question

I\'m trying to port over some of my old rails apps to Ruby 1.9 and I keep getting warnings about how \"Ruby 1.9 doesn\'t support Unicode normalization yet.\" I\'ve tracked

Answer 1

Replace the body of the method with

raise "transliterate called"

and observe a backtrace which will show you where the stuff is coming from at the first call. Your app will of course collapse as well but that will likely give you the culprit from the first try.
