I forgot to mention that ruby-glib2 doesn't need the above patch to work.

I have committed packages "ruby-pango-0.90.7-2" and "ruby-gtk-0.90.7-2", both patched according to the sourceforge page that you linked to. With those two packages installed, I was able to run screenruler without any issues. Can you confirm before I close this bug? :-)

I've installed the new packages and it works for me. Thanks, the bug can be closed.
