Subject: Re: How to make a browser in Ruby Tk

hi, Firstly i add
 /usr/local/ActiveTcl/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf  on top
But it didn't work. Then I
 i uninstall Tcl package of fc3.
    i used  " rpm    -qa    |    grep    tcl"
rpm   -e   --nodeps   tcl-devel-8.4.7-2 
rpm   -e   --nodeps tk-8.4.7-2 
rpm   -e   --nodeps tcl-8.4.7-2 

After this I reinstall ActiveTcl is installed at /usr/local/ActiveTcl
and set path.

Then i  used tar xvzf ruby-1.8.2.tar.gz
 cd ruby-1.8.2
./configure --with-tcl-dir=/usr/local/ActiveTcl/  \
                     --with-tk-dir=/usr/local/ActiveTcl/   \
                     --with-tcllib=tclstub8.5             \
                     --with-tklib=tkstub8.5              \
                     --enable-tcltk-stubs

 make
make install
Then ,  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/ActiveTcl8.5.0.0b3/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
=/usr/local/bin/irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'tk' 
LoadError: libtk8.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file
or directory - /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux/tcltklib.so
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux/tcltklib.so
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tk.rb:7
        from (irb):1:in `require'
        from (irb):1

        from (irb):2
irb(main):003:0> Tk::AUTO_PATH.list

        from (irb):3
irb(main):004:0> require 'tkextlib/tkHTML'
NameError: uninitialized constant TkPackage
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tkextlib/tkHTML/htmlwidget.rb:15
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tkextlib/tkHTML.rb:13:in `require'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/tkextlib/tkHTML.rb:13
        from (irb):4:in `require'
        from (irb):4
what should I do?
I want to install it any way. For this i can uninstall and reinstall
all things.Just tell me what to do.?
presently 
 rpm    -qa    |    grep   tcl 
gives
tclx-8.3.5-4 db4-tcl-4.2.52-6 tcl-html-8.4.7-2
postgresql-tcl-7.4.6-1.FC3.1
tclx-devel-8.3.5-4
ruby-tcltk-1.8.1-7
tclx-doc-8.3.5-4

Should I erase all the above?
I think problem is that Ruby is not taking the path of Tcl/Tk
extension correctly.
bye
