Subject: Re: problem installing TkRuby on Ubuntu 12.04

I have asked the same question on AskUbuntu(long ago) - where I got this 
answer recently in which I was asked to change a line in tcl.tk file in 
/usr/share/tcltk/tk8.5

The 18th line "package require -exact Tk 8.5.11" when changed to 
"package require -exact Tk 8.5.10" solves the problem and makes the 
installation work (I haven't experimented with it yet, but as of now the 
require 'tk' works).

It seems like Tk 8.5.11 is not used (something like that) when I change 
this line... but, I am not sure about what problems/ disadvantages I 
might have if I go with this installation. But temporarily it works if I 
do this change.

I am posting this for those who have the same problem and want to make 
Tk work with ruby1.9.1 on ubuntu. I don't think this post would be that 
helpful for those trying to resolve the bug.
