Hey Vit read through the changes, they look good, save one point. Under
"Libraries" > "Rubygems"

"There '''should''' not be listed any <code>Requires</code> nor
<code>Provides</code>, since they are autogenerated."

I understand this is a 'should' and not a 'must' but perhaps this
restriction should only apply to "rubygem Requires", eg rubygem-curb
needs to have a dependency on libcurl which is seemingly in contrast w/
this item.

Perhaps something like this would work?

"There "should" not be any Rubygem <code>Requires</code> not
<code>Provides</code> listed since those are autogenerated"

Also what about BuildRequires, will those be autogenerated?

Other than that looks great, thx for this,
