Thanks. I do have readline.so. I just did not paste that part. Look.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] myuserid]$ slocate readline.so /home/scratch/myuserid/usr/local/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/readline.so /home/scratch/myuserid/usr/local/lib/python2.4/libreadline.so.4 /home/scratch/myuserid/usr/local/lib/python2.4/libreadline.so.4.1 /home/scratch/myuserid/usr/local/lib/python2.4/libreadline.so.4.2 /home/scratch/myuserid/usr/local/lib/python2.4/libreadline.so.4.3 /usr/lib/python2.3/lib-dynload/readline.so /lib/libreadline.so.4 /lib/libreadline.so.4.1 /lib/libreadline.so.4.2 /lib/libreadline.so.4.3 So, I did export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/scratch/myuserid/usr/local/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload/readline.so It still does not work. Didn't you suggest that we do CFLAGS at the following forum? http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/06/02/4026.html Thanks.

You are missing the readline-devel (or some such name) RPM: see the R-admin manual for further details. [...] -- Brian D.
