Using gem2deb's --gem-install option and RFS: ruby-activerecord-session-store [Bugfixes: #809875, #810518]

Hi,

I've pushed a new version of ruby-activerecord-session-store to the
alioth repo. The package had two RC bugs which kept it out of Testing,
thus affecting the migration of Diaspora. These bugs were similar,
caused by the package trying to overwrite files that were used by
other packages (inside the folders /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/ and
/usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/tasks/ ).

So, I used the --gem-install option that was recently[1] added to
gem2deb, which makes the package follow the same structure followed by
Rubygems. So, this installs all the files to a package specific
location, hence avoiding the overwrite conflict. All the tests still
run fine, but to confirm, I tried using the newly generated package in
a sample rails application (even though I am relatively a noob in
Rails application development, I believe the package worked fine)
succesfully. It would be great if someone could confirm the package
works fine and it is ok to upload this revision to Debian archives.

BTW, in the bug #810518 , Andreas Beckmann suggested that we should
add a Breaks+Replace with ruby-devise to prevent problems from
happening during stretch->sid upgrades. I am not sure if that is
necessary as we now use package specific layout. Can someone confirm
that too?
