/usr/bin/* are to be called by the user, so the version of Ruby they run _should_ not be too important for the user. As of today, our default version of Ruby (i.e. /usr/bin/ruby) is 1.8, so the binaries should usually be part of libfoo-ruby1.8. Or, OTOH, think twice: Are the binaries pertinent for the library? They often are rather examples that should be moved to /usr/share/doc/libfoo-ruby(1.8|1.9.1|-common)/examples instead.
