Rails 4.1.0 and authlogic bcrypt issue

Question

I'm running the latest OSX with rvm ruby 2.1.0. After bundle update to Rails 4.1.0 and authlogic 3.4.1, when I start the server I get this error:

authlogic/crypto_providers/bcrypt.rb:1:in `require': cannot load such file -- bcrypt (LoadError)

From this issue on the authlogic github account

Authlogic has changed its default encryption system from SHA512 to SCrypt.

It seems that you need this in your gemfile

gem 'authlogic', '~> 3.4.0'
gem 'scrypt'

If you don't want SCrypt you can use Sha512 by putting this

acts_as_authentic do |c|
  c.crypto_provider = Authlogic::CryptoProviders::Sha512
end

in your User.rb

You also might need to specify the version of the authlogic gem

gem 'authlogic', github: 'binarylogic/authlogic', ref: 'e4b2990d6282f3f7b50249b4f639631aef68b939'

but I guess this will be fixed soon
