i have this

     jib:~/eg/ruby/rubyforge/rubyforge-0.1.1 > file bin//rubyforge
     bin//rubyforge: a ruby script text executable


     jib:~/eg/ruby/rubyforge/rubyforge-0.1.1 > cat ./gemspec.rb
     lib, version = File::basename(File::dirname(File::expand_path(__FILE__))).split %r/-/, 2

     require 'rubygems'

     spec = Gem::Specification.new do |s|
       s.name = lib
       s.version = version
       s.platform = Gem::Platform::RUBY
       s.summary = lib

       s.files = Dir["lib/*"] + Dir["bin/*"]

       s.require_path = "lib"
       s.autorequire = lib

       s.has_rdoc = File::exist? "doc"
       s.test_suite_file = "test/#{ lib }.rb" if File::directory? "test"

       s.author = "Ara T. Howard"
       s.email = "ara.t.howard@noaa.gov"
       s.homepage = "http://codeforpeople.com/lib/ruby/#{ lib }/"
     end


and this gem, apparently, does not install a 'rubyforge' script into the system
bin dir.  why not?

regards.
