Annotate gem and rails 3.1

Question

Does anyone have any idea why annotate does not work anymore in rails 3.1 ?

When trying to run it with :

 $ rvmsudo bundle exec annotate --position before 

and given I've got the following in my gemfile:

gem "annotate", '2.4.0' 

I get the following error:

  /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180@rails31/gems/activerecord-3.1.0/lib/active_record /railties/databases.rake:3:in `<top (required)>': undefined method `namespace' for main:Object (NoMethodError) 

I'm using RVM with a gemset dedicated to rails 3.1 with Ruby 1.9.2

There's already a patch for this issue: https://github.com/ctran/annotate_models/commit/8057b920968a4c64c7d558e43834f81867329fcc

You should use the last version:

gem 'annotate', :git => 'git://github.com/ctran/annotate_models.git' 

Bests,

UPDATE: It's fixed in the latest beta version at RubyGems. Use:

 gem 'annotate', '~> 2.4.1.beta'  

Thanks to Michael Hartl for this information.
