Sorry for the late reply.

It does happen with the 1.9 ruby package in Karmic. It doesn't happen
when I build from source (apt-get source ruby1.9.1 && apt-get build-dep
ruby1.9.1). But it's hard to tell because I likely have all kinds of
build dependencies installed. In the next few days, I'll find some time
to create another virtual machiene running the ubuntu-virtual-server
image of lucid. That should clear things up as to what packages have
this bug and what triggers it.

I suppose it's better that I test the lucid situation than the karmic
situation anyways.

Just a general question: what will the ruby transitional package refer to?
And what will be the default dependency of ruby related packages (like diakonos 
or passenger) to depend upon?

I would really like to see Ubuntu make the transition away from ruby 1.8
.. nobody is running stock ruby1.8 with passenger on a production
server. They are either running ruby enterprise editition or ruby 1.9,
because the performance simple isn't acceptable otherwise.

It would be really great if apt-get install ruby ruby-gems 
apache-module-passenger .. setup a working 1.9.1 setup.
Unfortunately I'm not a C programmer and am not too familiar with their build 
system. But i'll do my best to pinpoint the problems and possible diversions 
from upstream that are responsible for the issues.
