Having 'ruby' as a dependency in manifest.xml

I tried to add this line to the utilrb manifest.xml file:

<rosdep name="ruby" />

but autoproj complains that it doesn't know it. Is adding this:

ruby:
debian,ubuntu: [ ruby1.8-dev libruby1.8 rubygems1.8 ]

to osdeps.orocos sufficient or will this break other parts of autoproj ?

That would be a bad idea. The problem is that ruby can either be ruby1.8
or ruby1.9.

Just add

ruby: ignore

in orocos.osdeps for now.
