[gdal-dev] Using GDAL to update DBFs of an ESRI Shapefile ?

I failed in finding a programatic way of updating the attributes of an ESRI
Shapefile feature (using Ruby 1.9.x on OSX Lion) therefore I wonder if I can
use GDAL to accomplish this task. 

Let's say I have a CSV file containing the fields/rows that I want to update
and an ESRI shapefile with the associated .dbf. Basically I want to update
only the DB with the content from CSV. Is it possible ?

Thanks,
