I once had a similar error and was a problem with the DNS configuration. You can use the google ones

I don't think it's DNS. Why would then curl-config not be found and also
the conversion error is strange.

As it turns out, green_shoes work, I am not sure though whether the
conversion error will have some effect.

I would still appreciate any help with original shoes installation.

That error was shown when generating documentation, Shoes itself is
not affected. You might be missing a page or two in your local
autogenerated green_shoes documentation (use `gem server` in console
and navigate to http://localhost:8808/ to view it), but it's kinda
useless anyway, as Shoes has its own docs.
