The FXRuby binary gem for OS X is built on my MacBook, which is
running Leopard (10.5.x). So it's based on the Ruby that comes
preinstalled with Leopard, and the X server that ships with that OS
version, etc. So yes, you're going to need to either build it from
source (with help from Fink for some of the dependencies).
Hope this helps,
