[DRE-maint] [Bug 869858] [NEW] ruby-gnome2 fails to build from source

[Paul Dwerryhouse]

Public bug reported:

ruby-gnome2 is failing when I try to build it from the Ubuntu natty
source package. I have installed all of the build-dependencies (using
apt-get build-dep ruby-gnome2), however when building, it fails during
the configure stage due to a missing libgtkmozembed.so.

Either this means a package is missing from the build-dependency, or
gtkmozembed is no longer available, and the official ruby-gnome2 package
was built on a machine with an old version of whatever package used to
have libgtkmozembed.so, still installed on it.

Build logs:
