Removing ruby-activerecord

Hey, so I spent far too long over the last few days trying to get 
activerecord v2.3.8 to compile against Fedora before I realized that I 
was basing my attempt off the wrong package.

Specifically, we have two activerecord rpms in Fedora, ruby-activerecord 
and rubygem-activerecord

http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/ruby-activerecord/
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/rubygem-activerecord/

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


Obviously, conforming to standards, rubygem-activerecord is the way to 
go, and I can't figure out why we are keeping ruby-activerecord around, 
especially since its horribly out of date (pulling version 2.0.1, the 
package itself has not been updated since 2007).

Can we orphan / remove ruby-activerecord all together?
