I agree with you, some ruby-packages just are a royal pain in the arse to maintain. Sometimes i wish I just when with rbenv[1] and call it a day. I still have some packages that use the old naming convention. But like you said the worst scenerio is to deal with multiple versions, like one fact you need to update an gem, but packages that depend on it need an older version of it, so now you have to have 2 versions of that gem. It can be done, we just need more man power to put quality packages. Also, I would like to have a tool to check the AUR packages version agains the rubygems so we can them more easily updated, has anyone written such a script ?
