“stack level too deep” while compiling assets

问题

After running brew upgrade, or something else which updated my gems/ruby version, my rake assets:precompile task no longer works.

I get this error:

rake aborted!

Tasks: TOP => assets:precompile

Here is a link to my Gemfile: http://www.pastie.org/3019470

Other rake tasks, like db:migrate, continue to work as expected. This only affects the assets:precompile task.

(Repeating my comment from above, since it appears to have actually been the correct answer. For anyone who does not already use it: rvm, rvm, rvm. Learn it, love it.)

There's something very strange with a stack trace that references three different versions of ruby (1.9.1, 1.9.2, and 1.9.3). I would recommend installing rvm, creating a clean gemset, and trying this again.
