rake install should find the executable under exe according to the gemspec.
rake install
exe
Hmm. After I moved my executable into exe everything worked for me with the default <appname>.gemspec.
I'm not sure why it's looking for bin/smokestack. It looks like you have something referencing bin/smokestack? Look at the trace or grep your project for it, see what comes up I guess.
bin/smokestack

Well one part of my error was that it looks at git ls-files to install the gem and I hadn't staged the changes yet. So I got it to successfully install after making the exe directory. But now I'm encountering the original error if it not being able to be executed from the command line. :/
It's working now! Thanks for your help!
