Re: failing to compile v. 9.0.1 on debian squeeze with readline

Hi!

Sorry for the noise, it was mostly my bad, people told me i needed to
have libreadline6-dev package installed, from there come among other
things two links

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 20 Dec 6 09:57 /usr/lib/libhistory.so ->
/lib/libhistory.so.6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Dec 6 09:57 /usr/lib/libreadline.so ->
/lib/libreadline.so.6

And as a result the optreset and setproctitle parameters get set to 'no'.

Although during apt-get build-dep postgresql-8.3 on lenny (v. 5.0) it
installs libreadline5-dev but on squeeze (v. 6.0) neither of the -dev
packages gets installed (need to lobby debian package managers on that!).

Thanks for your replies!
