The source for this PDF is not provided in the source, and upstream
refused to provide it in a way suitable for us.
See http://lists.debian.org/debian-ruby/2011/04/msg00112.html
and http://lists.debian.org/debian-ruby/2011/05/msg00011.html

Besides that, there's a almost-ready package in the pkg-ruby-extras git
repo.
