squeeze includes only one Ruby 1.9 package.
alternatives is not needed.

My opinion:
 * package name of Ruby 1.9.1 shoud be "ruby1.9"
   (many ruby1.9.x packages and many /usr/bin/ruby1.9.x
   introduce unnecessary complexty.)
 * we should not use alternatives for /usr/bin/ruby1.*
   (we should have "standard ruby" or "standard ruby1.9".)
