Hello useRs!
I'm REALLY having trouble with readline when compiling R. 2.2 from source
during ./configure.
Here are the last lines of the configure log:
checking readline/history.h usability... yes
checking readline/history.h presence... yes
checking for readline/history.h... yes
checking readline/readline.h usability... yes
checking readline/readline.h presence... yes
checking for readline/readline.h... yes
checking for rl_callback_read_char in -lreadline... no
checking for main in -lncurses... no
checking for main in -ltermcap... no
checking for main in -ltermlib... no
checking for rl_callback_read_char in -lreadline... no
checking for history_truncate_file... no
configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not
available
I'm on a ASUS W2V laptop (Chipset 915PM), on Mandriva 2005LE distro,
libreadline5 and readline5-devel installed.
I managed to get it compiled and installed using option --with-readline=no.
However, as I use R dayly, I'd like to get a functional terminal again....
Can I do something to fix this, is it a configure script error or should I
just change distro? :))
The R.2.0 rpm for mandrake installs ok.
here the location of my libreadline files
/usr/lib/libreadline.a
/usr/lib/libreadline.so
/lib/libreadline.so.5
/lib/libreadline.so.5.0
/lib/libreadline.so
CheeRs!
Pedro
