there already is a gem2rpm script, and it works fine. I've churned the
entire gem base in Feb 2008 to prove it. Some of the ri handing isnt
ideal, but it works or is simple to patch out. I was lazy and only
really wanted to sanity check and did not mind either ri or rdoc in the
roots.

The ri and rdoc handling needs some special care. IMHO the doc tree
should go in /usr/share/doc, and I don't think that gems, or ruby are
built to do that. I think that some kind of docs should go in
/usr/share/doc (I hate installing rpms with no documentation), but
installing docs in the correct location takes a little bit of brain
scratching.<br>

I found the gem2rpm rpm, I'll play with it in the coming days.<br>
