Is it also because its dependencies depend on it?

I ran bundler with success using the latest ruby patch :). It requires
a tweak to the environment so the GEM_PATH points at
$HOME/.guix-profile/lib/ruby/gems/2.2.0/
The script I use to run Ruby is at
https://github.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/scripts/ruby-guix-env
that essentially replaces the old rvm or rbenv! So much better :)
BTW: would it be an idea to name the bundler package ruby-bundler instead?

Oh, wow! Maybe you can help me because I tried to use Guix to replace
rvm/rbenv at work and I failed miserably. Native extensions failed to
build successfully or would fail to dlopen shared libraries later on.
The ffi gem was particularly problematic. I had no choice but to
switch to rbenv to keep moving with my tasks. Have you experienced
similar problems?

The reason I didn't name it as such was because it's primary focus is
being an executable program that users interact with, not a library.
Thanks for your feedback. I'm eager to have some more hands helping
out with Ruby packages. :)

Yes. Currently cucumber install fails with the Guix bundler. We should
try and resolve them one by one. The main problem is the mixing of
local and guix environments. Mixing the two environments creates
confusion :). It would be nice if bundler could run in a 'clean Guix
room'.

I like the idea of listing all Ruby packages so it is clear what is
there:
guix package -A ruby
Do you have another way?
