To reflect these changes I would propose that we update our ruby package guidelines with the new way that Felix found.
I took the liberty of updating them on my personal space [2]. If there is no objection, then I would like to push the changes to the main page.
I've some a couple of tests, especially to check de- duplication, native extensions and reproducibility with the new proposal. They passed for all items of my test set. All of them also properly removed things where I previously had other de-duplication rm calls. Native extensions still work properly while not preserving intermediate object files in our packages for no reason. Overall the changes look good and very functional. The wiki proposal looks solid. A bit unfortunate that ruby requires all that shizzle, but welp, definitively better this way compared to not doing those cleanups. Thumbs up from me 👍 Cheers, Levente
