Vit,
     I took a look at this, and I have to admit I am a bit baffled by the
situation.  I looked at the latest rdoc sources (https://github.com/rdoc/rdoc)
vs. the current upstream ruby sources (https://github.com/ruby/ruby).  The
sources are identical; indeed, there is a commit in the ruby source code
(b7528b5edb1f9148ea00ebb6151720e5943b3f0b) that updates the ruby in-tree code
to the latest rdoc git.  That seems to say to me that the ruby code is tracking
the rdoc, and that the code in the ruby tree is probably the canonical one we
should use.
    That being said, then, we already have a ruby-rdoc package that is built
out of the ruby SRPM.  Granted, it is a much older version (since Fedora is
still on ruby 1.8.7), but it seems to me that we would want to stick with that.
 At least, adding another gem that does the same thing as the base ruby library
seems to be a recipe for confusion.  Can we not just patch the railties gemspec
to remove (or modify) the rdoc dependency, and then just use the ruby-rdoc
package we already have?  Is there something else I'm missing here?
