Public bug reported:

As noted in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=710814
packaged gem binaries cannot be located via .bin_file/.bin_dir and will
cause other ruby code that attempts to execute binaries via these
methods to fail.

Note that in 2015 bundler stated placing gem binaries in a directory
named "exe", but although the error may differ slightly the cause is the
same. https://bundler.io/blog/2015/03/20/moving-bins-to-exe.html

This is a particular problem for gems that attempt to execute rake via
this method.  Since the ruby packages depend on the rake package, gems
end up with a version of rake that they cannot run via
.bin_dir/.bin_file.

And also, because of bug 1405108, installing a newer version of rake via
"gem install" doesn't solve the problem.
