Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported bundle update result and inspect the project's dependency declarations for net-ssh and net-scp. Review the linked net-scp issue for compatibility context; done means the dependency update no longer causes the reported incompatible version downgrade.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

When I run bundle update I get:

Fetching net-ssh 7.0.1 (was 6.1.0)
Installing net-ssh 7.0.1 (was 6.1.0)
Fetching net-scp 1.2.1 (was 3.0.0)
Installing net-scp 1.2.1 (was 3.0.0)

As you can see there is a major downgrade of net-scp after the upgrade of net-ssh.
