I don't necessarily think we should remove non-buildable rubies. Upstream 
keeps them around, so I don't know why we'd go through the trouble of removing 
them in the Debian package.

Marking as wishlist since this is a design flaw (of sorts) in ruby-build. Also 
merging in a similar bug.

Apologies for the necro, just trying to clear through the bugs for this 
package. You probably haven't thought about this issue in over a decade
