Package: pcs
Version: 0.9.148-1.1
Severity: serious
Justification: blocks transition to ruby2.3

Control: forwarded -1 https://github.com/feist/pcs/issues/86
Control: user -1 pkg-ruby-extras-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Contro: usertag -1 ruby2.3

Dear Maintainer,

pcs is the only reverse dependency of ruby-monkey-lib, which is dead
upstream and does not work with Ruby 2.3.
See http://bugs.debian.org/815777

Actually, by inspecting the souce code of pcs, it seems that monkey-lib
is not used at all. I asked confirmation upstream
https://github.com/feist/pcs/issues/86


Since ruby-monkey-lib is not working with ruby2.3 and is blocking the
transition of ruby2.3 to testing, we are going to request its removal.
Dropping ruby-monkey-lib from build-dependencies and dependencies
results in a working package.

Cédric
