I am trying to install R2.4 in a non-standard folder on a mandrake 10 system.
I did this:
./configure --prefix=/the/dir/where/I/want/r/to/go
and I got the following error:
configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not
available
I know that I can do
--with-readline=no
But, I do want this readline feature. I have a whole bunch of readline
libraries:
/lib/libreadline.so.4
/lib/libreadline.so.4.1
/lib/libreadline.so.4.2
/lib/libreadline.so.4.3
So, I did this:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib/libreadline.so.4.3
or
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib/libreadline.so.4.3/
or
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib/
or
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib
The problem remains.
I even have readline5.2 installed for this purpose, but it does not help.
Not sure how to resolve this problem.
Any idea?
Thanks.
