Greetings,

The latest version of the ruby Portfile (dubbed 1.8.5_1) adds tcl and tk as dependencies. I suggest making them as a 'tk' variant instead, having to install tcl/tk to actually install ruby hurts my feelings pretty badly... :)

The problem is that ruby uses tk and tcl during compilation. I don't know what exactly. I agree that it's a pain and it would actually be in favor of Jordan's position. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.os.opendarwin.darwinports/18644/ I don't know how to turn it into a variant in such a way that without this variant, ruby doesn't touch tk & tcl if they're available.
