Sup requires the rubygem 'xapian-full' as a runtime dependency.
I saw that its nothing but xapian-bindings-ruby and xapian-core which
are already packaged for Fedora.
Is there a way I could bypass the gem dependency and use the system
xapian libraries for sup's runtime?

My review request for sup is at
