$ apt-cache show ruby
ruby:
  Installed: 1:1.9.3
  Candidate: 1:1.9.3
  Version table:
 *** 1:1.9.3 0
        500 http://ftp2.jp.debian.org/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages

Only because 1.8 version of ruby is phased out, that does not mean
that there is no ruby package anymore?

$ apt-cache show ruby
Package: ruby
Source: ruby-defaults
Version: 1:1.9.3
Installed-Size: 31

Architecture: all
Replaces: irb, rdoc

I am not sure what is going on on your side, but that should
be enough, or what am I missing?
