Subject: newbie question about solaris and ruby/tk

hello,
Ihave installed the SUN's package of ruby under solaris 8.
I was happy to find that tcltklib was comiled within:

$ ls -l /opt/sfw/lib/ruby/1.6/sparc-solaris2.8/tcltklib.so
-r-xr-xr-x   1 root     bin       115916 nov  28  2001
/opt/sfw/lib/ruby/1.6/sparc-solaris2.8/tcltklib.so


 But when I try to load it , I get this message:


$ irb 
irb(main):001:0> require 'tk'
LoadError: ld.so.1: ruby: fatal: libtk8.3.so: open failed: No such file
or directory - /opt/sfw/lib/ruby/1.6/sparc-solaris2.8/tcltklib.so
        from /opt/sfw/lib/ruby/1.6/tk.rb:7:in `require'
        from /opt/sfw/lib/ruby/1.6/tk.rb:7
        from (irb):1:in `require'
        from (irb):1

I have configured this environment variable:

$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/opt/sfw/lib/ruby/1.6/sparc-solaris2.8/

and:
export RUBYLIB=/opt/sfw/lib/ruby/1.6/sparc-solaris2.8


$ irb
irb(main):001:0> puts RUBY_PLATFORM
sparc-solaris2.8



but it still not work. It seems to be a newbie problem, please help me
:->

thx
