Bug #9051: open-uri meta_add_field method removed

• Status: Closed
• Assignee: akr (Akira Tanaka)
• Target version: 2.1.0
• ruby -v: ruby 2.1.0dev (2013-10-18 trunk 43355) [x86_64-darwin12.5.0]
• Backport: 1.9.3: DONTNEED, 2.0.0: DONTNEED

[eweb (Eamonn Webster)]

In the fix for bug #4964 the method Meta#meta_add_field(name, value) was removed and replaced with meta_add_field2(name, values) Note plural!

This breaks code that uses meta_add_field. e.g. HTTPClient.

The fix is to re-implement meta_add_field using meta_add_field2

Sounds reasonable.
How do you think, akr?
