 Split from Ticket #22304

 Hi,
 RubyForge is being replaced by GemCutter.org. The gem fetch method in
 Macports is therefore also affected and should be updated / improved in
 some way.

 See:

 1) Original commit:
 rubyforge_gem fetch method for the Ruby PortGroup & livecheck support
 (pguyot in r20544 & r20834, respectively)a

 2) Current state of affairs:
 http://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/_resources/port1.0/group/ruby-1.0.tcl

Comment(by dreamcat4@…):

 We would be better off implementing this as a wrapper ontop of Ticket
 #22530. And then replacing the existing rubygems fetch method with a
 similar wrapper. This will allow more freedom to specify alternate gem
 source(s).

 What's not clear is whether we need to implement some failover or a
 priority list. Ie if a gem migrates from rubyforge to gemcutter. We might
 just update those manually and avoid implement such a complex priorities
 mechanism.
