Red pill, though, was unnecessary; since libruby depended on libssl0, it should have been pulled in automatically (now that you added the SDK repo) when you tried libruby or rubybox again, so you don't need to be able to manually select it.

I'd recommend going back to blue-pill; anything you need red-pill for is, imho, better done with dpkg/apt-get on the command line, because they give more useful feedback about what they're doing, anyway. As for the SDK repo, generally it should be disabled when you're not trying to install particular software from it.

(for the record, I only stayed in red-pill mode long enough to install libssl0, I immediately returned to blue-pill)

Now, if I am understanding you, I should not have used the libssl0 from the Maemo diablo/sdk repository. The only other repository that had it was Maemo Chinook. Since my tablet is running Diablo, I uses the diablo/sdk repository, not knowing that sdk is a synonym for "danger".
(Yes, I know that SDK means "software development kit")

To be safe, what should I do? I'm figuring that I should uninstall libssl0, the ruby files, and RubyBox, remove the Maemo diablo/sdk from the App Manager's list, add Maemo Chinook to the App Manager's list, then just reinstall the ruby files and RubyBox. Is this correct?

Pushwall, I could try to rewrite the ui stuff with RubyGame or completely with Vala or such if there's demand for it :) But let's see what the future brings.
