[DRE-maint] Bug#770748: test if runtime dependencies in gemspec are present when building library

[Pirate Praveen]

package: gem2deb
version: 0.10
severity: wishlist

sometimes we update gems without meeting their suggested runtime
dependencies. we should check this automatically by running 'bundle
install --local' during each build. if we don't want to update a
dependency we should loosen the dependency by patching gemspec.

when running a bundle install --local for diaspora (see
https://wiki.debian.org/Diaspora for steps to install diaspora), I have
noticed many libraries does not have their required dependencies.

it would be good to catch this during build time automatically.
