Is there any way you can auto-detect that QT is installed/not installed before it fails to build the gem and give a message explaining that QT is missing? While running bundle install on a third party gem that has capybara-webkit set as a dependency, I didn't know why the gem was failing to install. After lots of searching, I finally found the answer. I'm not sure that it is even possible, but it would be helpful to anyone else running into the same issue of not being able to install a dependency because another unknown dependency was required.
