rubyripper-0.5.3 ebuild modified from rubyripper-0.5.2.ebuild

I will attach the patch as the next attachment

patch necessary to get rubyripper-0.5.3 to emerge.

I created a local portage overlay and modified the ebuild and patch to allow
rubyripper-0.5.3 ebuild to be emerged.

Please test, and if I botched it, please explain to me why it is in error so I
can learn to help build ebuilds for the community.

The problem lies in how the check for gtk2 is done. Currently the
configure-script use a "require 'gtk2'". gtk2.rb makes a call to the function
GTK.init when loaded which fails if it cannot connect to a running X or if
DISPLAY is unset.

One solution here is to just remove the check since that line in configure have
no impact on if the gtk-gui is getting installed or not.

Patch to get configure working in non-X emerge

Proposed patch to get rubyripper to install in non-X emerge.Checks for gtk2 is
removed.

fixed in 0.5.3 by using Xeconf

I've just hit this now, with rubyripper-0.5.3

I'm building within a chroot (/chroot), using "mount --bind /tmp/ /chroot/tmp/"
allowed it to compile.

The error message was identical to that in the original bug report, except "No
protocol specified" was omitted.
