To Jeweler, or not to Jeweler: that is the question.

rake gemspec causes self-dependency.

See: https://github.com/technicalpickles/jeweler/issues/188 And: https://github.com/rdp/os/pull/5

technicalpickles recommends that we remove the gemspec entry in Gemfile and maintain duplicate dependency entries in gemspec and Gemfile. This is contrary to the Bundler recommendations, but may be necessary to work with Jeweler too.

Or... we could remove Jeweler. Here's some links that describe what life is like without Jeweler.

• http://yehudakatz.com/2010/04/02/using-gemspecs-as-intended/
• http://yehudakatz.com/2010/12/16/clarifying-the-roles-of-the-gemspec-and-gemfile/

Both ways have their advantages. I will be happy to support whichever way you decide to go.

I see you've already changed the Gemfile: https://github.com/rdp/os/commit/a86e45502ab443b56c1f123f2b61bd03760d9fc5#Rakefile-P5. Feel free to close this. I left it open because I wanted to give you a chance to review those links. :)
