Well as I exspect ri to drag ri1.8 along, and ruby ruby1.8 because it's
just the current version, I was already confused that there was not
an rdoc virtual package.
So I would suggest to make this the same as all other ruby related
binary packages. A rdoc dummy package depending on rdoc1.8.
I believe this isn't mentioned in the Ruby Policy[1] though, only for
modules[2].
