Subject: [ruby-talk:15585] -lX11 error installing Ruby

I installed Ruby successfully once (./configure - make - make install), but
I found out that it didn't have tktcl support, so I modified the Setup file
and did

make clean
./configure
make

make fails in step gcc ruby with

	cannot find -lX11

I tried again with

make --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib

Same result.

How can I get the make to complete?

TIA,
