Given that it says "1.8 or later", is there any evidence that there's
anything more here than it just needs to learn that 1.9 is an existing
Ruby version?

(Also, I don't think the kde3 amarok should be removed unless we've
decided it's time to start removing kde3. Maybe it's time for that; I
don't know what the general feeling is, I only remember that when kde4
came out there was a lot of "over my dead body" sentiment among kde
users.)
