Severity: wishlist

  Dear maintainer,

  While in the process of removing build-deps on ruby1.8-dev for
packages of mine that build binary extensions (and adding
ruby2.0-dev), I thought it would be good to have a ruby-build-dep (or
something) dependency package that would pull all the -dev packages
currently available. This way, a binNMU would be enough to drop
support for an old Ruby version, or add support for a shiny new
experimental ruby version (provided of course they compile, but that
would also mean finding out earlier if they don't).

  What do you think about that ?

  Cheers,

        Vincent
