Proper/best way to merge PDFs from Ruby?

Doing simple concatenation of PDF files.

At the moment I'm invoking pdftk from within Ruby...
works fine, but feels ugly, and I don't want the dependency.

Any good way to do this? Even a one-off would be welcome...

Cheers,

This is what I tell Prawn users to do, so unfortunately for now I
don't have a better suggestion.
PDF merge is a non-trivial operation. But we may end up with
something sooner or later...
