Check the output of APT closely, it reveals what will actually
happen:
There's "The following packages will be REMOVED" section, which
lists packages which will indeed be removed if you choose to
continue the upgrade.
Then, there's "The following packages were automatically
installed and are no longer required", which lists packages to
which, after the upgrade, no dependencies could be found. Under
this category, some Ruby packages are listed. They will not be
automatically removed. APT tells you how to get rid of them, if
you choose to. Moreover, it is not Ruby itself, but some KDE
packages with ruby stuff. These are no longer needed after the
upgrade, either since the newer KDE does not make use of Ruby any
more, or since there's some optional support for some stuff in
KDE which needs Ruby, but which the package creator did not
switch on.
HTH,
Christian
