[Alex Panchenko <alex@xxxxxxxxx>]

I found 2 issues with ruby-debug at the moment:

1. the check if the ruby-debug gem is installed. Since it could be 
installed in different places (and your situation is one of the 
examples) we would provide option to disable this check for advanced users.

2. current version of ruby-debug is 0.10.1 and according to the 
http://rubyforge.org/frs/shownotes.php?release_id=21031 it contains some 
 INCOMPATIBLE CHANGEs so we need to modify our code to handle that.

We will fix this issues in one of the next RCs.

regards,
Alex
