On other linux distribution you would do something like:

...$ sudo apt-get install libedit

or

...$ sudo apt-get install libedit-dev

A search on your distribution for libedt might help.

If earlier J releases worked on this box, you could also try a
701/801/802 jconsole with the new release.

Historically we used libedit to avoid readline GPL issues.

We are thinking about moving to readline as this would be simpler in a
wider variety of linux system.
