 Well, if I look at [ruby-talk:45536] some questions are not ruby related
 (the first about configure), some others need more context.

 Seems dependent of its configuration, for example

                                                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

                                                           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

 I can understand that it can't find tcltklib, but not that it can find it
 with /usr/local/bin in the path
