Conflict dependency at rest-client and rest_client

[abtris]

Can you explain why you use gem rest?

It's depend at rest_client but common use is rest-client and their conflict at binary, both has executable restclient?

Thanks

rest is so you can swap out the underlying http gem easily. rest-client (and therefore rest_client) is super slow compared to other options like typhoeus and net-http-persistent. rest chooses the fastest/best one or you can select yourself without having to change your code.

rest_client is a fork of rest-client that strips out the mime-types dependency which had a bunch of versioning issues.

Does the binary conflict cause issues other than a warning?
