The ruby bindings are not built automatically by 0.20.2.  You seem to be
building a snapshot of master. If you want to build the release from
git, use the signed tag.

The question of why master won't build for you is also interesting, but
a different question. A quick search reveals packages of notmuch 0.19
ruby bindings seemingly for fc22

     https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/ruby-notmuch/contents

So I guess have a look and see what existing fedora packaging does.

At the moment the only way to disable the ruby bindings (other than
hacking the build system) is not to have the ruby development files in
the build env. This may change by the time this is part of a release.
