Hi Vijayram,

this readline library should be sufficient.

Hmmm ...

.... might be that the loader library cache on your Linux box is not set
up correctly.

As root
 - make sure that the file /etc/ld.so.conf contains a line /usr/lib
 - run /sbin/ldconfig

(This is for RedHat Linux. File names and location might differ with
other distributions.)

Hope this helps...
