Capistrano deployment fails after upgrade to Rails 3.2.11

Question

I have production Rails 3.2.3 application which I use to deploy using capistrano. When I decided to upgrade rails to 3.2.11 i did following steps:

1. changed rails version in Gemfile
2. run "bundle update rails"
3. pushed new gems from vendor/cache, Gemfile and Gemfile.lock
4. run "cap production deploy"

Capistrano now fails with error:

  * 2013-01-11 15:58:25 executing `deploy:assets:precompile'
    triggering before callbacks for `deploy:assets:precompile'
  * 2013-01-11 15:58:25 executing `deploy:assets:update_asset_mtimes'

I tried to perform these steps with other project which previously successfully used to be deployed with capistrano with the same result.

My Gemfile and deploy.rb

FWIW, I was getting this after updating Capistrano to > 2.14.0:

*** [err :: ourapp.net] cp: cannot stat `/home/deploy/www/ourapp/shared/assets/manifest.yml'
*** [err :: ourapp.net] : No such file or directory

I think symlinking the assets to the shared dir would fix it, but instead of messing around (gotta get this deploy out), I just downgraded cap back to 2.13.5.
