Which are the most important/useful libraries? I might like to try my
hand at one.

In all honesty, and without being snide or facetious -- the most
import/useful libraries are the ones *you* think are. Hop on over to
CPAN and when you see something important/useful to you that doesn't
exist on RAA, there you go :-)

Maybe someone should start with

http://search.cpan.org/~saper/CPAN-Dependency/lib/CPAN/Dep...

(which won't help many rubyists directly, but would be a good
way to start a project like this.)

well because you asked, there are soo many useful libs/tools @ CPAN: i.e.
* UML::Sequence - draws sequence diagrams by running the code
* Algorithm::Diff Rpdfp Diff (also Longest Common Subsequence)
* Algorithm::Merge bpdfp Implements 3-way merge and diff algorithms
... etc.

But you might find these useful:
