Why do you think so?  Trying to remove ruby will tell you why portage 
refuses to do so, and that reason is any installed packages that depend 
on it.  This differs from using equery, which will tell you every 
package that depends on ruby, whether or not it is installed.  Using -d 
instead of -a saves you from typing "N" just in case it IS willing to 
unmerge it.
