Suse's package manager seems a bit off: for instance it shows readline-devel as installed and in the Files list: the includes are correct /usr/include/readline chardefs.h, history.h, keymaps.h, readline.h, rlconf.h, rlstdc.h, rltypedefs.h, tilde.h but claims /usr/lib64 libhistory.so, libreadline.so and those are not in the filesystem (after I unlinked of course) The package manager has libreadline's File list correct: /lib64 libhistory.so.6, libreadline.so.6 but that obviously disagrees with readline-devel. -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
