Looks like you need whatever is the FreeBSD equivalent of readline-dev(el).
AFAICT FreeBSD doesn't do things that way. On a nearby machine, I see
$ pkg which /usr/local/include/readline/readline.h
/usr/local/include/readline/readline.h was installed by package readline-6.3.8
What's more likely the problem is that FreeBSD insists on installing
packages under /usr/local, but it does *not* set that up to be part of
gcc's default search paths. (Security 1, usability 0.) You need these
configure flags to do much of anything on that platform:
--with-includes=/usr/local/include --with-libs=/usr/local/lib
For ages I have been manually compiling PostgreSQL under FreeBSD with only :
./configure --with-ldap
But in my case I tend to fall back to gcc instead of the native clang/llvm . That might be his issue.
It seems to be the case. With GCC installed, by default I get no problems :
root@smadev:/usr/local/src/postgresql-11beta2# uname -a
FreeBSD smadev.internal.net 11.1-RELEASE-p4 FreeBSD 11.1-RELEASE-p4 #0: Tue Nov 14 06:12:40 UTC 2017 root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64
root@smadev:/usr/local/src/postgresql-11beta2#
root@smadev:/usr/local/src/postgresql-11beta2# cd /usr/local/src/postgresql-11beta2
root@smadev:/usr/local/src/postgresql-11beta2# ./configure
.....
config.status: linking src/makefiles/Makefile.freebsd to src/Makefile.port
root@smadev:/usr/local/src/postgresql-11beta2# echo $?
0
By looking into config.log :
configure:3885: checking for gcc
configure:3901: found /usr/local/bin/gcc
configure:3912: result: gcc
configure:3943: checking for C compiler version
configure:3952: gcc --version >&5
gcc (FreeBSD Ports Collection) 6.4.0
Now, if I configure for clang I get the error :
root@smadev:/usr/local/src/postgresql-11beta2# setenv CC cc
root@smadev:/usr/local/src/postgresql-11beta2# ./configure
......
checking for readline/readline.h... no
configure: error: readline header not found
If you have libedit already installed, see config.log for details on the
failure. It is possible the compiler isn't looking in the proper directory.
Use --without-readline to disable libedit support.
root@smadev:/usr/local/src/postgresql-11beta2#
As suggested, when using clang, the way to overcome is via :
./configure --with-includes=/usr/local/include --with-libs=/usr/local/lib
