Still present in Feisty. Package "ruby" is Ruby 1.8.2 and package "ruby1.8" is Ruby 1.8.5.

Please, fix this. Having both packages is misleading. I understand there might be some problems with Ruby > 1.8.2 in certain applications but then the most logical step would be to rename those packages:
Ruby 1.8.5 (always latest version) ---------> package name "ruby"
Ruby 1.8.2 ---------> package name "ruby1.8.2"
