Just reported https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/41140

Regarding out-of-date (not updated to the latest version), broken (build
fails), incomplete (no systemd units), bad name (should be ruby-blah not
rubyblah) or whatever else can be invented. The package needs to be
updated no matter the reason for being flagged - thus, auto-orphaned so
interested people can take care of it. Therefore I don't think
differentiating between out-of-date, broken or whatever is useful for
anything.

Think of "Flag package out-of-date" as "Package needs updating" not
"Package version is out-of-date".
