Re: [Patch] ruby-debug-inspector

Hi Matthew,

Thanks for the patch, all patches toward rails are much appreciated. I 
do have a few comments though.

I'm of the opinion that we should keep most ruby packages in 
gnu/packages/ruby.scm because to me "is this ruby package a rails 
package?" is not one with a straightforward answer. We already have 
activesupport in ruby.scm for instance, and that is more of a rails 
package than this I would argue.

Looking a bit closer at this it appears the test directory is missing 
from the gem but even the repository too. Maybe instead we add a cheap 
and cheerful test like this:

    (arguments
     `(#:phases
       (modify-phases %standard-phases
         (replace 'check
           (lambda _
             (zero? (system* "ruby" "-Ilib" "-r" "debug_inspector")))))))

WDYT?

bacon is not a dependency other than for testing, is that right? If so I 
don't think it is necessary.

Can you send an updated patch please? I'll look at your other patches 
soon too.
