[DRE-maint] [Bug 447523] Re: ODBC::Error: INTERN (0) [RubyODBC]Cannot allocate SQLHENV

[Carsten Gehling]

@deepak: When I download the new libodbc-ruby1.8 and try to install it
on Debian 5 with

sudo dpkg -i libodbc-ruby1.8_0.99991-1_i386.deb

I get a dependency error:

(Reading database ... 42650 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace libodbc-ruby1.8 0.99991-1 (using libodbc-ruby1.8_0.99991-1_i386.deb) ...
Unpacking replacement libodbc-ruby1.8 ...
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libodbc-ruby1.8:
 libodbc-ruby1.8 depends on libruby1.8 (>= 1.8.7.249); however:
  Version of libruby1.8 on system is 1.8.7.72-3lenny1.
dpkg: error processing libodbc-ruby1.8 (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
 libodbc-ruby1.8

is it safe to add "squeeze" as a apt-source and upgrade/pin libruby1.8
from there on an otherwise stable Debian 5/lenny?

Bug description:
After updating to 0.997 every call to ODBC results in the error message:
ODBC::Error: INTERN (0) [RubyODBC]Cannot allocate SQLHENV

Steps to reproduce:
$ irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'odbc'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> ODBC.drivers
ODBC::Error: INTERN (0) [RubyODBC]Cannot allocate SQLHENV

With version 0.995 from intrepid it works.
