It actually require ruby(abi) = 1.8 This is likely only satisfied by Ruby 1.8.5 in your repositories.
This is the way the rpm package is currently built. This is in the problem of changing, as 1.9.3 is now becoming the default in Fedora 17. I suspect a spec version very soon will have a this updated to run with Ruby 1.9. There are a couple of other 1.9 compatibility issues with packaging. For example, ruby-shadow doesn't quite work with Ruby 1.9 and now rubygem-ruby-shadow should be used.
