Ruby 1.8.3 has entered the unstable tree of Debian (sid) about 3 weeks
ago.  Hopefully it will make it to the testing tree (etch) this week if
the open and resolved bugs are closed by the maintainer (Akira Yamada). 
Note that Ruby 1.8.2 is present in stable (sarge) and it will remain and
that version, stable releases are (version-wise) frozen.
See also the Debian QA Package Tracking System:
http://packages.qa.debian.org/r/ruby1.8.html

I hope I have clarified it sufficiently for you. :)

Regards,

Paul
