Rails core - Oct 2013 - `sprockets-rails ~> 2.0.0` as `rails`'s dependency?

I just noticed that `rails` gem actually requires `sprocket-rails` as a runtime
dependency. (According to https://rubygems.org/gems/rails) I would think that
you only need s-r gem only if you enable asset pipeline. Should that dependency
be moved to AP, Railtie, or removed?

Thanks,

Prem

I don’t think we need to change. This is like we do activerecord gem, even
if you disable it the gem will be installed. When you disable the assets
pipeline we just don’t load the sprockets-rails railtie.

If people don’t want to install tem gems they should pick the wanted gems
in the gemfile removing the rails gem. Some time ago I opened a PR to
change the way these options
works<https://github.com/rails/rails/pull/5703>but we conclude that it
is not worth and would make harder to people add
back the components.
