conflicting guidelines

Hey was just look at the updated guidelines here [1] (if there is a more
recent version, please let me know).

I was a bit thrown off by the following two guidelines:

- Under 'Ruby Compatibility'
"Each Ruby package *must* indicate it depends on a Ruby interpreter. Use
ruby(release) virtual requirement to achieve that: Requires: ruby(release)"

- Under "Libraries" > "Rubygems"
"There *should* not be |Requires: ruby(release)|, unless you want to
explicitly specify Ruby version compatibility. Automatically generated
dependency on RubyGems (|Requires: ruby(rubygems)|) is enough."

Should the former only take effect for non-gem Ruby packages?
