From Ruby 1.8, many external modules that are distributed as separate packages, are bundled in upstream ruby modules. These packages are libwebrick-ruby, libzlib-ruby, libopenssl-ruby, libstrscan-ruby, drb, libiconv-ruby, xmlrpc4r, libtest-unit-ruby, libyaml-ruby, librexml-ruby and forthcoming soap4r and so on.
Currently, these are packaged from ruby1.8
source package. FIXME:
how do we handle this issue?
