Hey folks,

RSpec's assumption that the existence of a Gemfile means you want to use 
Bundler to configure runtime environment is flawed. We added a skip_bundler 
option to the rake task, but that was a temporary hack to get us through a 
release without breaking existing suites.

This still presents a problem for anyone who doesn't have Bundler installed, 
and is contributing to an open source project that does use Bundler for 
installing gems as a convenience, but doesn't need it for the runtime 
environment. I'm sure there are other cases.

If this topic interests you, please take a look at 
https://github.com/rspec/rspec-core/issues/454 and my proposed fix at 
https://github.com/rspec/rspec-core/commit/f90b9f5c6ce5efdfb5cf18efbe27adf87d0fa848.
 I think this is a good solution to the problem, but I want to get some 
feedback before merging this to master.

Please comment in the issue and/or the commit on http://github.com/ rather than 
here. I'd like to keep the conversation in one place.

Thanks,
David
