Package: rails
Version: 2.0.2-2
Severity: important
Rails should depends on Gem and then install rails as gem package
It is not possible to use rails without gems because most of ruby
programs depends on gems
to check where library or program installed.
As example you can install netbeans package
then from netbeans ruby and rails plugin
then rails from debian;
netbeans uses gem and so can't find it.

Then go ahead, use gems.
Perl has its own packages (for developers). Python has its own packages
(for developers). Ruby has its own packages, taken to a new level,
almost mimicking repository packages.
So go ahead,
dpkg --purge rails
gem install rails
And you get *exactly* what upstream wanted as part of that specific version.
Closing bug. Gem != Deb. Problems with Gem can only be fixed by its
developer, not me adding a patch not-yet-released.
