Distributing the readline library legally would require me to find and make
available a copy of the source code used to build that exact version of
readline, as well as to license the vlinac under the GPL, which as I have said
before isn't my call since it's not my code.
The existing package copies the necessary libraries from the common Base
builds here at APS, which are configured to use readline on Darwin and Linux.
Eliminating readline would require me to build special versions of Base for
the two Darwin targets before building the vlinac — not hard I admit, but it
adds another significant step to the packaging process. I've added a copy of
Steve Lewis' instructions to the README file instead.
If you or anyone else wishes to provide a better built and packaged version of
the vlinac for Darwin I'd be happy to host or point to it. I would also love
to see a few more down-loadable examples of other stand-alone IOC applications
that beginners could install to try out EPICS.

An error is only a mistake if you don't learn from it.
When you learn something from it, it becomes a lesson.
