Well, the fact that XS-Ruby-Version pops in or out depending on the value of a 
parameter is based on a mechanism that does not support checking the content 
of a list. This would require quite a change in the core Config::Model 
library. That's why I proposed using Maintainer field.

Let's try the easy way, i.e. using Maintainer field.

If this cause too much problems, I'll see what I can do to use a build-depend 
item.

Is this fine with you ?

All the best
