To compile 'tcltklib', you must have Tcl/Tk libraries on your environment.
Although 'extconf.rb' script searches Tcl/Tk libraries and header files,
sometimes fails to find them. And then, 'tcltklib' cannot be compiled. If
Tcl/Tk libraries or header files are installed but are not found, you can
give the information by arguments of the 'configure' script. Please give
some or all of the following options.
--with-tcllib=<libname> (e.g. libtcl8.3.so ==> --with-tcllib=tcl8.3)
--with-tklib=<libname> (e.g. libtk8.3.so ==> --with-tklib=tk8.3)
--enable-tcltk_stubs (if you force to enable stubs)
--with-tcl-dir=<path>
equal to "--with-tcl-include=<path>/include --with-tcl-lib=<path>/lib"
--with-tk-dir=<path>
equal to "--with-tk-include=<path>/include --with-tk-lib=<path>/lib"
--with-tcl-include=<dir> the directry containts 'tcl.h'
--with-tk-include=<dir> the directry containts 'tk.h'
--with-tcl-lib=<dir> the directry containts 'libtcl<version>.so'
--with-tk-lib=<dir> the directry containts 'libtk<version>.so'
If you forgot to give the options when do 'configure' on toplevel
directry of Ruby sources, please try something like as the followings.
$ cd ext/tcltklib
$ rm Makefile
$ CONFIGURE_ARGS='--with-tcl-include=/usr/local/include/tcl8.3/ --with-tcllib=tcl8.3 --with-tklib=tk8.3 --enable-tcltk_stubs' ruby extconf.rb
*** ATTENTION ***
When your Tcl/Tk libraries are compiled with "pthread support",
Ruby/Tk may cause "Hang-up" or "Segmentation Fault" frequently.
If you have such a trouble, please try to use the '--enable-pthread'
option of the 'configure' command and re-compile Ruby sources.
It may help you to avoid this trouble.
