Description Manuel Rüger (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2015-02-28 13:31:04 UTC 
Upstream support for Ruby 1.9 ended, therefore we'd like to remove ruby1.9 soon.

Your package depends on ruby:1.9, please use a recent ruby implementation and get this version stable, if the ruby:1.9 version had stable keywords.

There was some work in progress to make it work with ruby-2.0, however development stopped about one year ago.

So it is probably a good idea to treeclean the package instead.
