we need at least host-ruby, because host-ruby is a dependency for WebKit :
    package/qt5/qt5webkit/qt5webkit.mk:11: host-bison host-flex host-gperf
host-python host-ruby \
    package/webkitgtk/webkitgtk.mk:15:WEBKITGTK_DEPENDENCIES = host-ruby
host-python host-gperf \
    package/wpewebkit/wpewebkit.mk:15:WPEWEBKIT_DEPENDENCIES = host-gperf
host-python host-ruby \
