OK I'll start with renaming ruby-parser to ruby-ruby-parser and
follow the steps once it is accepted in the archive.
cool, thanks
FWIW yesterday I committed a change to gem2deb to drop this exception
for "ruby" in gem names: https://deb.li/41zI
Great. I have uploaded fixed versions of all reverse dependencies
except obs-api. For obs-api I filed #956504 as there were many changes
in master I'm not sure if it is ready for upload.
ruby-ruby-parser has a Breaks and Replaces which forces updating the
packages that depends on older ruby-parser when ruby-ruby-parser gets
installed.
