For me it is always clear. Keep the branched versions as they are unless
you have really good arguments for upgrade.

Well, there is still just Ruby 1.8.7 in EPEL6 and these are rather old
and incompatible (mainly due to encoding support and character
handling). It should be better in EPEL7 with Ruby 2.0.0. Upstreams tends
to drop official support for older Rubies (without any real reason
except reducing the support matrix), but the code typically works
(although you might need to relax some dependencies).

One thing to always consider is the dependency chain, including the
build dependencies ...
