Hi!
As a member of the Ruby team, I am asking for the removal of rubygems
from the archive. This package is for ruby1.8 only, which is now
deprecated (newer Ruby interpreter have their own version of rubygems
bundled).
In sid, rubygems has only one reverse dependency left (ironruby-utils #735647),
and two build dependencies (jpoker #735666, and opendnssec #735587).
Opendnssec should be fixed soon according to Ondřej Surý. The other two
haven't been updated since the beginning of the release cycle of Wheezy.
Thanks in advance.
With kind regards,
Cédric
