      Nix can create nix packages from gems.

      To use it do the following:
      1. Install rubygems and rubyLibs.nix.
      2. Add $your_profile/${ruby.gemPath} to GEM_PATH.
      3. export RUBYLIB=$your_profile/lib RUBYOPT=rubygems.
      4. Run `gem nix --[no-]user-install gem1 gem2 ...` to generate Nix
      expression from gem repository.
      5. Install rubyLibs.gem1 etc.
