As an added note, this package installs things into /usr/local/bin,
which is explicatively disallowed Debian FHS. No package that we install
should touch /usr/local.

This entire patch is a horrible idea and poorly executed.

Moving bug to critical due to policy violation, and the possibility that
a gems package could easily hose your system if it overrides a shared
library in place.

** Changed in: libgems-ruby (Ubuntu)
   Importance: High => Critical

-- 
rubygems bin in PATH potentially breaks other applications and violates all 
sense of decency in packaging.
