Compiling Ruby without Tk?

ruby-talk
1

Greetings,

I'm trying to package Ruby without compiling the Tcl/Tk extension.
This is so I can install Ruby on a system without X11 or Tcl/Tk.
Examining the output of configure --help doesn't seem to yield
anything obvious.

Thanks,
Scott

If you give invalid Tcl/Tk lib names, tcltklib may not be compiled.
For example, "configure --with-tcllib=none --with-tklib=none".

"configure --without-tk" should work with 1.8.4.
