Hi,

I'm in the middle of releasing orocos_toolchain for fuerte, since some
of our packages rely on ruby packages that are to be installed with
gem, I created gem installer support for rosdep, see ticket with
attached patch: https://code.ros.org/trac/ros/ticket/4050

This would allow us to cleanup our osdeps and rosdep rules.

Is there any time-schedule for when this feature would be picked up so
we could go on with the fuerte release?

Ruben
