[gentoo-dev] [PATCH 3/3] ruby-fakegem.eclass: warn about using the fallback gemspec

[Hans de Graaff]

The fallback gemspec does not contain dependencies so it will only
work for packages without any runtime gem dependencies. It is easy to
use it by mistake when switching from a gem to a source-based archive,
because the source-based archive does not contain the generated
metadata, but RUBY_FAKEGEM_GEMSPEC has not been set yet. This warning
alerts developers to this situation and encourages them to set
RUBY_FAKEGEM_GEMSPEC instead.
