That didn't convince me, neither in "Ruby sucks" part (all my packages in Debian except Alicq are Ruby libraries :), nor in "arch-indep to share" part: aside from common sense "lib is for libraries", in another sub-thread it was already mentioned that even interpreted libraries are not always "arch-indep". -- Dmitry Borodaenko
