FFe: remove ruby-vmc & ruby-json-pure from quantal

[Julian Taylor]

updated, see comment #2

ruby-json-pure is outdated, unmaintained ubuntu only, ftbs and worst conflicts with ruby-json from debian (bug 935412, bug 1026049)
the only rdep is ruby-vmc

ruby 1.9.1 which ruby-vmc depends on includes ruby-json in its standard library with almost the same version (1.5.1 vs 1.5.4)
So I propose to drop the -pure dependency in favor of the stdlib implementation and then remove ruby-json-pure from the archive.

Fine with me. Please go ahead.

OK with ruby-json-pure removal (before beta 2, please), too.

[Julian Taylor (jtaylor)]

after trying to check if ruby-vmc still works with the change I discovered that it requires another ruby gem, interact, which isn't even packaged.
Without it there seems to be little useful functionality in it and people are probably better of using the unpackaged gem.

So I would like to remove ruby-vmc completely from the archive instead of fixing it.

[Stefano Rivera (stefanor)]

Sounds good to me. Remove them both
