Thanks Vit -- I had to make a couple other changes so that the EPEL6 mock build would finish successfully.

Before I invest the effort in the other packages, I'd like to get sign-off that what I've done for rubygem-bunny is ok. Can someone review  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=821285 and let me know?
