Ok, I see. > I am inclined to keep libyaml-ruby1.6 (renamed from current libyaml-ruby > as soon as ruby-defaults is out), and make a libyaml-ruby metapackage > that depends on libyaml-ruby1.6 | libyaml-ruby1.8, so that a program > that doesn't care about Ruby version would pull in either 1.6 or 1.8 > version, depending on the version of Ruby installed. Yes, please keep libyaml-ruby1.6 while ruby1.6 around. Regarding libyaml-ruby, do you want to maintain it by yourself? Now, ruby-defaults packages contains all -ruby packages for -ruby1.6 packages that are built from ruby1.6. So, as the same rule, I suppose ruby-defaults provides all -ruby packages for -ruby1.8 in ruby1.8 source package, after ruby-defaults becomes ruby1.8. But I'm not sure which is the better way.
