Thread: Problem compiling with readline

See if ncurses/ncurses-devel are installed. I've had compilation with
readline support fail when these are missing.

Cheers,

Postgres 7.3.2 compilation.

This was my problem. Complained of no readline support, but actually the
problem was lack of libncurses-devel package on my Redhat-based system.

Bah.

I guess config.log did hint at that, but I didn't know enough about the
output to understand that's what it was telling me.
