Breaks on Rails Sprockets 3.7.0 when installed via Bower

[btrscott]

Bower install adds bootstrap 3.0.0 to the components directory as a dependency of bootstrap-formhelpers#2.3.0. That version of bootstrap will kill the rails app with an encoding error even if bootstrap itself is not included in the rails application directly. Seems that sprockets will try to load bootstrap 3.0.0 and then die.

Solution is to upgrade the bower recipe.

Workaround is to install bootstrap via bower directly to get the latest version and ignore the bower dependency as defined by form helpers. Does mark formhelpers with an incompatible dependency (3.3.7 is incompatible with 3.3.0). Have not done enough testing to see how much breaks if any with 3.3.7

Project seems dead so I don't see it as being fixed but at least others can be warned.
