I've worked quite a bit with python 2/3 and ruby 1.8/1.9 and python is certainly far worse with regards to maintaining backwards compatibility.
While there are some incompatible changes in ruby 2, the majority are added features and optimisations, and unlikely to cause major breakage.

The language, the standard library, or third party modules?
Not that it matters if Python sucks for what you're doing--I would just like a little more detail.
