debsecan filters /var/lib/dpkg/status for the “installed” state:

        if 'installed' not in pkg_status.split(' '):
            # Package is not installed.
            continue

This code has been present since commit 8ea7f592 (2005-12-14), so I’m a
bit surprised about your report.

Are you sure that libruby1.9.1 and ruby1.9.1 were not removed just after
the report was generated? Check /var/log/dpkg.log, if you still have it :).

In case you can no longer reproduce the issue, let us know and we can
close it.
