[DRE-maint] Bug#649984: rake: rake/rdoctask

Package: rake
Version: 0.9.2.2-1
Severity: serious

While trying to build a development version of libguestfs where I have
building Ruby bindings enabled, I ran into the following error:

,----
| WARNING: 'require 'rake/rdoctask'' is deprecated.  Please use 'require 'rdoc/tas
| k' (in RDoc 2.4.2+)' instead.
|     at /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/rake/rdoctask.rb
| rake aborted!
| uninitialized constant Gem
`----

Following that advice (which I also found by searching the web for the
error message) got me nowhere, however:

,----
| rake aborted!
| no such file to load -- rdoc/task
`----

... which isn't that surprising as it's not available for Ruby:

,----
| $ ruby --version
| ruby 1.8.7 (2011-06-30 patchlevel 352) [x86_64-linux]
| $ apt-file search /rdoc/task
| libruby1.9.1: /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rdoc/task.rb                        
`----

Is there an obvious workaround that I am missing?

Cheers,
-Hilko
