Screencap does not work with PhantomJS 2.1.1, now released for Linux

[wfried]

Phantom JS 2.1.1 for Linux is finally available, and the PhantomJS-Gem has been released to support this. However, ever since upgrading to that version, Screencap is no longer working for me. It silently fails in my beta environment whereas it was working with version 1.9.8 of PhantomJS.

Has anyone else run into this?

Same problem on Debian 8 and OSX 10.10

Seeing the same thing on OSX 10.11.3 (El Capitan) as well. When I call #fetch it just hangs indefinitely.

I merged this pull request https://github.com/maxwell/screencap/pull/32 with my code to get this working with phantomjs 2.0, works without a problem and I get a lot less bugs.

Thanks @basex. That PR also fixed my woes. In fact gem 'screencap', github: 'Eventshare/screencap' solved the Phantom 2.1.1 issue as well as some rendering problems. So, thank you @jeremyk.

@maxwell can you merge https://github.com/maxwell/screencap/pull/35 ? Thanks

Whats the status of this? It seems like there is a fix which is not yet merged and published. Can @maxwell do us a solid and publish? :)
