You probably want to install "ruby1.8-task", or "ruby", which in turn installs a few dependencies (base + network). If you want more of Ruby's standard libraries, install ruby1.8-large to get them all, or install what you need by hand. Other interesting packages are "irb1.8" and perhaps "erb1.8".
Additionally, "ruby-agenda" and "ruby-ipaq" would be interesting, iff several dependencies on ruby 1.8 had been worked out, yet. Besides, ruby-agenda contains a bug that causes you to loose appointments. ruby-ipaq installs a replacement for gtk-menu that is a tad slower, but uses a nicer font and survives screen-rotations. It also has a few applets to monitor battery, cpu and a clock. Click on them for fancy features.

Actually, to complete the building of ext/socket/ I had to add const to the definition of gai_strerror() in addrinfo.h and getaddrinfo.c (as is in `man gai_strerror`). This is so small a change that I'm not building a source-file for it.
