As you predicted a RC bug has appeared against ruby-elasticsearch related to the ruby-patron dependency. I've just pushed a patch to the repo that removes the build dependency and the one associated test. I think a good case can be made for this being a minor tweak as ruby-patron is only one of a handful of transport adapters and the test that's disabled is only one out of 127. I've filed an unblock bug (cc'd this list) and it should appear shortly. I believe the next step is for someone to make an upload of the new package. Are you able to do this? Regards, Tim.
