Sure. It's a pretty vanilla Swig package which, for Ruby, just does:
(cd Ruby && \
CC="$(cxxcompiler)" \
CXX="$(cxxcompiler)" \
CFLAGS="$(compilerflags)" \
CXXFLAGS="$(compilerflags)" \
$(RUBY) setup.rb build )
where RUBY=ruby. So I may just get by changing
ruby1.8, ruby1.8-dev,
to
ruby2.0, ruby2.0-dev,
in debian/control. If that fails, I can always read up... :)
