The /sw directory is created by fink (http://fink.sourceforge.net/) which you may want to install. It's a debian-ish packaging system designed for bringing open-source programs to Mac OS X. I believe PostgreSQL is available as a fink package as well, but it may not be recent. Readline is available, and this may be the way to go if you can't get readline to compile on its own.
Good luck, Jeremy

I am trying to get PostgreSQL 7.4.1 to make with Mac OS 10.3 I run configure which complains about readline. I'm not sure how Apple compiled bash which is the new default shell but I can't find the library or headers either. I have installed Xcode and found a few notes online about postgres 7.3.4 and OS 10.2 which talk about making readline and using the /sw directory which does not exist on system. Does anybody know what I am missing?
Thank you in advance for any help Kevin Barnard
