Package: gem2deb
Version: 0.10
Severity: minor

Hi,

The 'usage' output is wrong. dh-make-ruby requires a path:

*** (master) lucas at grr:~/d/ruby-cute$ dh-make-ruby -p ruby-cute
Usage: dh-make-ruby [options]
    -h, --help                       show help
    -v, --version                    show version
    -p, --package PACKAGE            specify package name (default: ruby-*)
        --ruby-versions VERSIONS
                                     ruby versions to use (default: all)
        --no-wnpp-check
                                     prevent dh-make-ruby from checking wnpp reports

'dh-make-ruby -p ruby-cute .' works.

I wonder if '.' shouldn't be the default path?

Lucas
