This caused quite the shit storm with the Ruby community as well. Having to deal with, "Why does my require fail" on IRC almost every day is reason enough to have the Debian package managers beaten with a rubber hose.
As far as I can tell Debian is run by a bunch of twenty-somethings who think they're experts on package management, and they're going to save us 5 MB of disk space, whether we want them to or not. I know I'll never use a Debian flavored distro.
