Just to add a little to what others will say, I believe Gems have 
stopped using stubs in the recent versions.  That feature defeated one 
of the strengths of Gems, multiple version management.

I also believe RPA installs things directly into Ruby's lib directory, 
so it has no need of stubs.  RPA modules can be required normally, 
because of this.
