While I agree with assessment that it should not be forced (which is what recommend dependencies are for) I do not agree with the assumption that it should not be attached to ruby1.8. Your point on it being embedded is moot and out-of-context anyways considering it wouldn't be there as an external dependency if it was embedded and technically it's not embedded it's included. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
