Though it is hard to invent a package management for interpreted language that is not insane. It is much better with native ones because runtime dependencies are separated from development dependencies.

Rubygems supports development dependencies.

You must have though of different "development dependencies". I don't mean tools and stuff like that but all sorts of small static libraries (in native compilation world). With scripting language this unavoidably propagates on the end user unless you merge all deps into your sources inline for distribution (which no one does).
