What's happenig with Shikamarus packages? Isn't (s)he gone so long that they
are unmaintained and should be marked as such?

Just before I qualified as packager (in may I think) and got submit access, I
was helping Shlomi upgrade the packages belonging to shikamaru. Abong them was
many ruby packages.
After upgrading several ruby packages, we started having differences in build
success on the packages. I.e. They buildt on my cauldron but not in Shlomif's
system. It turned out that if one specific ruby package was installed, ALL ruby
packages failed to build, because the documentation did not build and some of
the items in %files was missing.
(I hope Shlomi still remember which ruby package needs to be listed as
BuildConflict. Maybe it's listed in some of the ruby packages he made after
discovering this.)
Untill we figured out something was wrong, I upgraded and checked in several
packages, between 10 and 20 packages, where the documentation package was
Removed from the spec, because bm/rpmbuild complained on missing files and I
thought it was removed in the new version. But when Shlomi build it, he added
the missing files, and I don't know if he readded the doc packages or just
added the installed-but-not-packages files in the %files section.
When we figured out that it was due to the BuildConflict, we decided that he
should do the ruby packges himself.
I saved the part of the spec that was removed when we found this out, and I
have pasted it below in case some are still removed and fails to build.
You should look for these part in the ruby specs. If they are missing, they
should be added.
