[Bug 409545] [NEW] libactiverecord-ruby fails without rubygem installed

[Tim Skirvin]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: libactiverecord-ruby

When I try to use activerecord without rubygems installed, I get an
error:

madcat:/usr/lib/ruby/1.8# irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'activerecord'
LoadError: no such file to load -- rubygems
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/memcache.rb:6:in `require'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/memcache.rb:6
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/active_support.rb:29:in `require'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/active_support.rb:29
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/active_record.rb:30:in `require'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/active_record.rb:30
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/activerecord.rb:1:in `require'
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/activerecord.rb:1
        from (irb):1:in `require'
        from (irb):1

Installing rubygems fixes the problem:

madcat:/usr/lib/ruby/1.8# aptitude install rubygems
Reading package lists... Done
[...]
irb(main):001:0> require 'activerecord'
=> true

This was supposedly fixed as part of bug 261928, but the problem seems
to have come back in jaunty:

ruby/+bug/261928

And this is all based on the Ruby Packaging Guidelines:
