Can't run on Ubuntu 12.10

[jrgifford]

Using rbenv and ruby 1.9.3p362, I can't run it. I get this error:

----------------------------------------------
       *** LOAD ERROR ***
 ----------------------------------------------
       Arcadia require ruby-tk extension     
       and tcl/tk run-time                   
       you must install before run ...       
 ----------------------------------------------
 ----- LoadError Details-----------------------
    Platform : "i686-linux"          
    Ruby version : "1.9.3"
    Message : 
     "cannot load such file -- tk"
 ----------------------------------------------

what am I doing wrong?

Hi James,
probably are missing these basic requirements:

1. packages tcl8.5 and tk8.5
2. package libtcltk-ruby
   Try to istall ..

Bye
Antonio

Hello!

All of those are already installed. Do I need to compile ruby with some special options?

mmmh
probably you need to install package ruby-1.9.3-dev
and then to reinstall libtcltk-ruby

[jrgifford]

Nope. Got those installed. Do I need to recompile my ruby or something? I'm
using rvm and rbenv on two seperate machines that are having this issue.

Hi, I'm facing the same issue on the same OS. Did you get this working?

[rdp]

did you install those packages and reinstall ruby?

yes. I am running Ruby 2.0.0 and reinstalled it by running "rvm reinstall 2.0.0". Is that enough? I did get an error as below. Not sure what to make of it though. The install itself seems to have completed successfully.

Error running 'env GEM_PATH=/home/sudarshan/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p0:/home/sudarshan/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p0@global:/home/sudarshan/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p0:/home/sudarshan/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p0@global GEM_HOME=/home/sudarshan/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p0 /home/sudarshan/.rvm/rubies/ruby-2.0.0-p0/bin/ruby -d /home/sudarshan/.rvm/src/rubygems-2.0.3/setup.rb --verbose',

What does irb
"require 'tk'"
yield?

Troubleshooting

----------------------------------------------
       *** LOAD ERROR ***
 ----------------------------------------------
Arcadia require ruby-tk extension     
       and tcl/tk run-time 

Solution:

Linux

(this helped me)
sudo apt-get install tcl8.5 tk8.5
rvm install 1.9.2 --enable-pthread or rvm reinstall 1.9.2 --enable-pthread

I not sure on other OS, but you need "activetcl" (activestate.com)

OS X

RVM disables tk/tcl by default, you need to tell ruby (via rvm) you want tk/tcl:
rvm install 1.9.2 --enable-shared --enable-pthread --with-tk --with-tcl

Windows install

rvm install 1.9.2 --enable-shared --enable-pthread --with-tk --with-tcl

Notes

ruby with --enable-pthread parametr may work slower than without it
for Arcadia better install own ruby version with --enable-pthread

[TheNotary]

I was stuck on linux mint/ ubuntu =( It appears that if you want to work with the tk tlc code base on those platforms, you must not use rvm and use the package maintainers 'full' version. This is disappointing but the below commands work...

$  sudo apt-get install tcl8.5 tk8.5 ruby-all-dev libtcltk-ruby 
$  sudo apt-get install ruby1.9.1-full
$  irb1.9.1
> require 'tk'
#=> true

$  gem1.9.1 install desired_gem
$ ruby1.9.1 script_to_run.rb

Hope this helps someone, though I can't get a render window to show up and am moving on to 'blind development' on an unrelated project, so perhaps this isn't the silver bullet after all.

Is it possible to get at the tcltklib package without having to sign up for an account at active.com?

This seems to be the only free Ruby IDE that's still in active development, so I'd like to get at its dependencies in a free manner too.
