That's wild. Which gem is it? Something AWS?

OP said that was for an entire app, not dependencies for a single gem. And it’s not really that many. A bone-stock Rails app includes almost 120 gems out of the box. Add a few additional gems that each have their own dependencies and you can get up to over 200 total packages pretty quick.

Maybe it shouldn't be necessary to have 120 different external libraries just to run bone-stock app? They should be placed in standard library.

It is a command-line tool for document production.
