+ruby-rails is already in and provides rails
+ruby-activesupport is also in
+
+ruby-actionwebservice is not, but judging at the version on rubygems.org
+it’s pretty old.
+
+There are some forks though, which are not uptodate either, like
+http://rubygems.org/gems/fdv-actionwebservice
+
+I’m not sure about what to do for this one, and I don’t know why puppet
+requires it. You and other sysadmin surely have a better knowledge of
+puppet, any pointer would be appreciated.
