This topic isn't for pkgsrc-users.  :-)  You had better ask some
Ruby's community.

Yes, Ruby 1.9.1 became popular in these days.

But I planed to import Ruby 1.9 based package after 1.9.2 released
since it is expected to really stable release of Ruby 1.9 series.
I heard that some Ruby's developers said "Ruby 1.9.1 is for users who
developing Ruby's libraries."

I've already finished most of work, but there is one problem about
RubyGems integration part.

Best regards.
