Thanks.

If you subsequently adopt the ruby-tk package, please remember to add 
ruby_tk_OBSOLETES="ruby-tcltk" there (as that's the preferred way to 
record obsoletions nowadays)

Yeah, calm needs to learn how to deal with this scenario better.

Probably what should actually happen here is that these packages get 
expired at the same time that the last thing providing ruby_23 gets 
expired (as they can no longer be installed and thus keeping them is a 
bit pointless)

I applied my usual workaround (which is adding 'ruby_23' to an internal 
list of things which are allowed to not be provided), and set the job to 
rerun, which seems to have succeeded.


Apologies for the inconvenience, and thanks again for updating ruby!
