I suggest introducing a similar page for Python, Perl, Erlang, and similar cases as well, if it turns out to be useful.''

  * There are a number of ruby implementations available, but currently only Matz' Ruby 1.8.7 is invokable just as {{{ruby}}}, or Matz' Ruby 1.9.1 is installed with variant {{{+nosuffix}}}. The variant causes ruby 1.9 to install withuout the suffix, but that makes it conflict with port {{{ruby}}}, i.e. 1.8.7. On the list Brett Eisenberg has suggested fixing that using the same approach as python_select and gcc_select, i.e. by writing configuration symlinks in a PATH location. 
  * To be discussed: should be library ports for ruby generally be avoided in favor of the now ubiquitous gem (part of the 1.9 release)? As said, gems easily break the repositories consistency if packages are not managed exclusively over {{{port}}} or {{{gem}}}.
