Some comments:
why debhelper 7? I haven't following this closely, but AFAIK debhelper 7
is still consider unstable, right?

I'm not sure if the -doc package is really necessary. Also, are you
really shipping the content of ext/ as doc?

Usually, I think that we depend on libruby1.8, not ruby1.8. This doesn't
really make any difference though.
