I know. Hmm...

The upstream author of libnet-irc-ruby stop maintain this library, and
said "Don't use this library". This library is for ruby1.6 (not for
ruby1.8).

The ruby-net-irc is based on "net-irc" in Rubygems.org, and completely
different library. 

In current renaming practice, transitonal package of libnet-irc-ruby and
ruby-net-irc are same package name. How do I treat it?
