Upgrading tzinfo to 1.2.7 causes: undefined method untaint' for class Enumerable::Recursor'

[TylerRick]

In my Rails project, when I upgraded tzinfo to 1.2.7 it caused this error whenever I tried to boot the app:

      facets/lib/core/facets/enumerable/recursively.rb:19:in `private': undefined method `untaint' for class `Enumerable::Recursor'

I was able to reproduce in more minimal context with:

      require 'tzinfo/ruby_core_support'
      class C; private :untaint; end

It looks like 'tzinfo/ruby_core_support' adds untaint method to Object using a refinement, which somehow isn't compatible with what facets does. Anyone have an idea how to fix this on the facets side?

Maybe as simple as just adding untaint as an exception to this line (which caused the error)?:

    instance_methods(true).each{ |m| private m unless /^(__|object_id$)/ =~ m.to_s }

but that seems brittle.

Why are we making these private anyway? Is there a better way we could do this? BasicObject?

A workaround for now is to just lock to:

gem 'tzinfo', '1.2.5'

... but eventually we'll be forced to upgrade tzinfo, so we'll need an actual solution.

Has anyone come up with a better/actual solution to this?

This is still happening. Any other ideas for fixing this?
