  Description: Ruby gem to retrieve the binding of a method's caller

 Retrieve the binding of a method's caller in MRI (>= 2.0.0) and RBX 
(Rubinius).
 .
 The binding_of_caller gem provides the Binding#of_caller method.
 .
 Using binding_of_caller we can grab bindings from higher up the call 
stack and
 evaluate code in that context. Allows access to bindings arbitrarily 
far up the
 call stack, not limited to just the immediate caller.
 .
 Recommended for use only in debugging situations. Do not use this in
 production apps.

This package is needed by the src:ruby-rspec-parameterized-table-syntax 
which will fix a FTBFS against ruby 3.2. It will be maintained under the 
Ruby team's umbrella.
