Could quarry be distributed as a gem? #37

So it can be installed from the repository by pacman -S ruby-quarry. (Unfortunately, the name "quarry" is already taken, so other name would probably be required to push it to Rubygems.)

It would also make it easier to get started with the project for those rubyists who are not so familiar with Arch.

I beg your pardon if it is out of scope of the project, but I wonder if I could use it to set up a local repository? I am looking for something which would allow to fetch all dependencies first, inspect them, and then deploy without relying on external resources(like https://rubygems.org or http://pkgbuild.com/~anatolik/quarry/x86_64/); something similar is described here.

@ch1c0t from the quick glance this project is more about building repo with Arch packages from ruby gems.

You can probably adapt the code, but from what I see, the non-arch-specific stuff is mostly composed of libraries and stuff from actual rubygems, so you can use those to build what you need.
