Re: ruby-pry-byebug: ships /usr/bin/rubocop, /usr/bin/bundle

[deivid <deivid.rodriguez@riseup.net>]

These kind of files should never be shipped since they are only meant 
for development.

The information about the executable files that should be shipped with a 
gem can be found in the gemspec. In this case, 
https://github.com/deivid-rodriguez/pry-byebug/blob/6021d2c01b2d9d00bbf7caace7beab9bf312d988/pry-byebug.gemspec#L19 
specifies that the gem should not be shipped with any executables.

Hope this is helpful!
