+Either you replace the dependency associated to the interpreters' libraries
+by providing debian/shlibs.local (or any other file that you indicate with
+-L) or you tell dpkg-shlibdeps to put the dependencies for the .so files
+of interest in another variable like ${shlibs:Suggest} (mixing -d and -e
+options as appropriate on the command line).

+there should be a way to opt out ruby1.9.1 build (example of package failing: termios)
