You'll need Qt4 and Qt4 Webkit ruby bindings installed. In Debian/Ubuntu this can be easily accomplished with the following command:
sudo apt-get install ruby-qt4 ruby-qt4-webkit
Install the gem after that:
sudo gem install bottles
Launch it like any other desktop application. You can also launch it from the command line using the bottles command.
