Well, I agree that the application vs library might be a bit fuzzy. But if you
take a look on Puppet, non of its files are installed into Ruby's
%{ruby_vendorlibdir}, while all of hiera's files are installed there. In this
case, it seems that hiera is more library then application and therefore it
should have ruby- prefix.

May be it could be split into two packages? Something like hiera, which
contains the executable and may be something more and the ruby-hiera, which
would contain the library part? Not sure if that is not overkill though :)
