I appreciate you intent to contribute to Debian, but do we really need
this packaged? For me this gem is too trivial, and other gems which
may use it should be patched not to use it.

class String; def blank?; self.strip.empty?; end; end

Does it worth to have its own gem?

I did not patched ruby-buff-* usage in my packages only because
ruby-buff-* was already packaged.
