Subject: rubyzip problem / question

Hi,

I'm fairly new to ruby and am trying to use the rubyzip library (I
downloaded the latest gem) to change a directory name in a zipped file.
 The code below seems to work (i.e. the directory names show as changed
in winzip), but I get "crc errors" when I try to actually decompress
the file.  I'd really like to avoid the overhead of unzipping and
re-zipping each file.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

require 'zip/zip'

target = "test.zip"

Zip::ZipFile.open(target) do |zipfile|
  zipfile.each do |e|
    if !e.directory? and e.to_s.include? "olddir"
      zipfile.rename(e.to_s, e.to_s.gsub("olddir", "newdir"))
    end
  end
end
