I don't think this is a bug in QtRuby, it seems like there is something
wrong with your setup.

Maybe regenerate and rebuild the Smoke library against the Qt 3.3.4 headers.
It has a version of '4:3.3.2-1' which sounds like it was generated against
the Qt 3.3.2 headers, which would be too old. Change to the qtruby/smoke/qt
directory and type 'make clean; make' to rebuild the library, then install
it.
