ruby-openid package

[Ken Dreyer]

Hi folks,

I was looking at the ruby-openid package, since it's a dependency for Gitorious:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/name/ruby-openid

Should this package be adjusted to use the RubyGem packaging
standards? ie. rename to rubygem-ruby-openid, use gem_ macros, etc.?

I am not ruby-openid user, however, I would say that fedora can only 
benefit if ruby-openid is deprecated in favor of rubygem-ruby-openid. 
Not mentioning that the ruby-openid apparently did not received too much 
attention in recent years IMO.

I agree with migrating this package to rubygem-ruby-openid. I've
written a patch to do this, here:
