"If you installed ruby from source, then readline probably didn't build when you built ruby because you don't have the required source files for the interfaces to the readline library" I think it would be awesome if a check could be added to the configure script, ie --enable-readline or similar. And when it cant be found, it wont try to compile ruby so that you can timely compile/install readline first again. :) -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
