We use a lot of ruby at work, and I'm often frustrated with the disconnect between the deb and gem packages, and tend to prefer the deb packages; discussion left aside. I end up mashing together debs as I go, and I'm trying to clean that up.
I've put together deb's of ruby packages with setup.rb in the past using ruby-pkg-tools, I've pushed uuidtools online here [1]. I don't see anything in ruby-pkg-tools for working with ruby packages that just have a Rakefile. Specifically at the moment I'm trying to debianize the chain of ultraviolet [2], textpow [3] and oniguruma [4]. In such a case should I fall back to dhmake and work up from there?
