Hello,
I am wondering how readline 5.2 must be compiled with an explicit link
to libncurses in the CLFS book ? There is a major disadvantage doing
this : when compiling bash, it links against readline (by the option
--with-installed-readline, which MUST be used to avoid the bugged
readline from bash implementation). This is a problem because readline
is available even when /usr is not mounted (which is the case for many
setup such as diskless or nfs-mounted /usr), whereas ncurses is
installed in /usr/lib{,64}, this disallow the use of readline when /usr
not mounted, because of this explicit linking. Is there any good reason
doing this ?
Gabriel
