Will not install due to ruby specific version dependencies that block upgrade paths. #47

I'm trying to map some legacy ruby code in an effort to upgrade out of needing to use its old versions of things - we know the code is legacy, but we have no way to update the version until we can map it and understand what the code actually does so we can put it under test, and then port/update it- and I get the following:

Fetching: xumlidot-0.2.0.gem (100%)
ERROR:  Error installing xumlidot:
        xumlidot requires Ruby version < 4, >= 2.6.

Thing is, this makes no sense given the data I have as there is no reason you should even be looking for ruby version 4 as it does not exist yet, and the 2.6 version minimal seems very arbitrary and constructive given the publicly stated goals of this project.

Is there a specific version that supports older versions of ruby that is still functional?

Would you please remove these constraints if its supported?

I'll have to remind myself why 2.6 is enforced ... possibly something with the sexp parser. I'll try and check over the weekend
