The problem is that existing libraries need to be migrated to ruby
1.9.1. Which is painful. So the idea is to write something similar to
python-support, called ruby-support, that will allow to automatically
support several ruby versions at the same time.

This is handled by the Debian pkg-ruby-extras, which could clearly use
some help. (see the debian-ruby@ list archives).

Also note that a ruby1.9 1.9.1 package is already available in Debian
experimental. But I strongly recommend against merging/syncing that
package in Ubuntu as long as ruby-support is not ready, and migration
plans have not been decided in Debian.
