Bug Description

Please backport libaugeas-ruby 0.3.0-1.1ubuntu1 (main) from maverick to lucid.

Reason for the backport:
========================
A number of functions and constants available in the Augeas library aren't exposed to Ruby, such as aug_load. ruby-augeas 0.3.0 provides the glue so they can be used.

We'd tried to use aug_load to fix an issue in Puppet, but discovered after release that Lucid doesn't have this version available: https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/13107

We need these methods and constants for other optimisations in the next major version of Puppet too.

Testing:
========
Mark off items in the checklist [X] as you test them, but please leave the checklist so that backporters can quickly evaluate the state of testing.

You can test-build the backport in your PPA with backportpackage:$ backportpackage -u ppa:<lp username>/<ppa name> -s maverick -d lucid libaugeas-ruby

* lucid:
[X] Package builds without modification
[X] libaugeas-ruby installs cleanly and runs
[X] libaugeas-ruby1.8 installs cleanly and runs

Reverse dependencies:
=====================
The following reverse-dependencies need to be tested against the new version of libaugeas-ruby. For reverse-build-dependencies (-Indep), please test that the package still builds against the new libaugeas-ruby. For reverse-dependencies, please test that the version of the package currently in the release still works with the new libaugeas-ruby installed. Reverse- Recommends, Suggests, and Enhances don't need to be tested, and are listed for completeness-sake.

Thanks Micah. I've tested the packages using Puppet as shipped in Lucid (0.25.4-2ubuntu6.6) with a handful of Augeas resources, and again with the latest 2.7.12 release to confirm they fix the problem.
