Thanks for the feedback andyl. We're thinking very much about the direction of embedding all dependencies, but we're also conscious of the needs of the Linux distros, who don't package software that way. There is a downside to having all your apps embed their dependencies. It becomes significantly more complicated to update libraries in response to vulnerabilities and bugs.

I've never seen an apt package that embeds ruby like Vagrant does. But - it works! (my dev platform is Ubuntu 12.04) Perhaps you don't need to embed all dependencies - just Ruby. Good luck in thinking this thru!
