gemspec files not compatible with bundler

    • Type: Icon: Bug Bug

    • Environment:
      MacOS 10.6, REE 1.8.7, rubygems 1.3.5, bundler 0.9.3, mongo 0.18.2

      When trying to start up a newly created Rails 3 (beta) application, I get an error with the mongo gem loaded on the system.

      It appears the bundler gem is scanning the *.gemspec files in the system gems and evaluating the Gem::Specification therein. When it gets to mongo and mongo_ext there is code that assumes mongo is is in the load path (requre 'lib/mongo') and how the file is being loaded (VERSION_HEADER = File.open(File.join(File.dirname(_FILE_), 'ext', 'cbson', 'version.h'), "r")).

      I don't think this necessarily goes against Gem specification, but mongo is the only gem that I have seen that programatically specifies attributes in the gemspec versus having them generated via a rake task.
