Bug#888949: libconfig-model-dpkg-perl: recognize X{S, B}-Ruby-Versions field for packages depending on ruby, not only ruby section

Package: libconfig-model-dpkg-perl
Version: 2.105
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

For a few years now, cme recognizes the X{S,B}-Ruby-Versions fields in
debian/control for packages of the ruby section.
Thanks a lot for that.

The spectrum of ruby packages in Debian became wider some of the
packages, though they use gem2deb and make use of these variables, are
not in the ruby section of the archive. Such an example is nanoc, a
static website generator (and thus in the web section).

Running cme fix dpkg-control on nanoc results in a no-op since the
variable XS-Ruby-Versions is not recognized.
Could you please widen the criteria for packages for which these fields are recognized?
(like those depending on ruby or rather build-depending on gem2deb?)

Thank you in advance.

Cédric
