Bug Description
Binary package hint: ruby-gnome2
It isn't possible to install only the Gtk2 bindings for Ruby (or even only Glib2) because of missing headers that have been put into ruby-gnome2-dev. This package depends on Gnome, which means anyone on a Kubuntu or Xubuntu will have to install all those Gnome packages for no good reason.
Every package based on a gem should provide all the files that the gem provides, otherwise it defeats the point of making the Gnome2 bindings packaging modular.
