Description

We really shouldn't be building packages inside the 'ruby193' software collection, but instead should have our own software collection (say, 'foreman') which depends upon ruby193.

Generally the provided SCLs aren't intended to have packages added to, or we could cause conflicts (e.g. ruby193-passenger is in RHSCL 1.1 but not 1.0, yet we provide it) and it will make it much harder for us to migrate to new SCLs (e.g. ruby200 and ror40) as all of our package names change.

Some docs on this are here:
