Rubygems supports development dependencies.
You must have though of different "development dependencies". I
don't mean tools and stuff like that but all sorts of small
static libraries (in native compilation world). With scripting
language this unavoidably propagates on the end user unless you
merge all deps into your sources inline for distribution (which
no one does).
