Actaully the 'ruby-libs' should be replaced with 'ruby', as is stated in Ruby
packaging guidelines.

Although there is a lot of gems which keeps the original gem in the RPM and it
is not against packaging guidelines, I also recommend to use %exclude for the
cached gem.

Otherwise I am fine with the package. Feel free to approve it and sponsor
Ulrich any time.
