getting "no implicit conversion of Pathname into String" when installing offline plugin.  
Downloaded logstash 8.12.2 and installed logstash-output-mongodb plugin  
created offline pack  
and trying to install on the server with  
./logstash-plugin install file:///tmp/logstash-offline-plugins-8.12.1.zip  
and getting "no implicit conversion of Pathname into String"  
Appreciate any pointers this happens if the zip contain dependencies folder
