While trying to use my own dbi-dbrc library within my Rails 1.2.6 app, I noticed something peculiar. You see, the dbi-dbrc library depends on the sys-admin library, but for some reason it kept giving me a LoadError when it tried to require sys-admin. Which was strange considering that I definitely had sys-admin installed as a gem.
It turns out that I forgot to add an explicit dependency for sys-admin to the dbi-dbrc gemspec. Once I added that and rebuilt and reinstalled the gem, Rails quit complaining.
So, it appears that Rails does some sort of runtime gem dependency checking instead of JUST LOADING THE FUCKING LIBRARY.
Stoo-pid.
