Thank you for a second opinion on this because I would prefer if `ruby-uri`
were not necessary.

It is prompted by an earlier discussion upstream[1] and by the observation a
pristine rebuild by

```bash
gem2deb mdl
```

yields a d/control file with an entry for `ruby-uri` though there is not an
explicit extra package outside Ruby's standard library.

The two lead me to think an update of `ruby-mdl` now should include the tests
present on GitHub, but not in the rubygem[2,3] to have strong evidence here.

At present, d/control does not call for `ruby-uri`[4] which both locally and
remotely on salsa is at best is "acceptable" because the test suite is not used.
So far, my attempts to get the tests running failed - which one reason why I did
not push the edits to the team maintained salsa repository of `ruby-mdl`.  I'm
aware the Debian Ruby Team compiled hints; so far, the website's examples escape
me because I'm not yet used to Ruby's automated testing.

Best regards,
Norwid
