Issue #6089 has been updated by Vit Ondruch. I don't know yet why it was changed. However, it already breaks Ruby on Fedora 17/Rawhide, so for me, it is quite high priority to solve it. ---------------------------------------- Bug #6089: Test suite fails with OpenSSL 1.0.1 https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6089 Author: Vit Ondruch Status: Assigned Priority: Normal Assignee: Martin Bosslet Category: Target version: ruby -v: ruby 1.9.3p125 (2012-02-16 revision 34643) [x86_64-linux] It seems that the patch [1] changes the behavior of openssl and makes the test_x509cert.rb fail: 1) Failure: test_dsig_algorithm_mismatch(OpenSSL::TestX509Certificate) [test/openssl/test_x509cert.rb:175]: OpenSSL::X509::CertificateError expected but nothing was raised.
