LAMP之路

过程中报以下错误,configure: error: readline library not found ,同事说已经在系统中安装
readline 包了，让我帮他看下。

1 环境信息
OS: CentOS release 5.2 (Final)
PG: postgresql-9.0.0]

2 根据提示，我测试了下 configre命令，果然报这个错

configure: error: readline library not found
If you have readline already installed, see config.log for details on the
failure.  It is possible the compiler isnt looking in the proper directory.
Use –without-readline to disable readline support.

    根据提示，应该是没有安装 readline包。

3 检查系统是否安装 readline 包
[root@HK81-107 postgresql-9.0.0]# rpm -qa | grep readline
readline-5.1-3.el5

  说明系统已经安装了 readline包。

4 通过 yum 搜索相关的 readline 包
[root@HK81-107 postgresql-9.0.0]# yum search readline
lftp.i386 : A sophisticated file transfer program
lftp.i386 : A sophisticated file transfer program
php-readline.i386 : Standard PHP module provides readline library support
lftp.i386 : A sophisticated file transfer program
readline.i386 : A library for editing typed command lines.
compat-readline43.i386 : The readline 4.3 library for compatibility with older software.
readline-devel.i386 : Files needed to develop programs which use the readline library.
readline.i386 : A library for editing typed command lines.

根据提示，有一个包引起了我的注意 “readline-devel”, 猜想可能与这个包有关。

5 安装 readline-devel 包
[root@HK81-107 postgresql-9.0.0]# yum -y install -y readline-devel

6 再次执行 configure 成功。

7 关于 readline 的解释，来自官网
–without-readline
Prevents use of the Readline library (and libedit as well). This option disables command-line 
editing and  history in psql, so it is not recommended.

  说明： 根据步骤2 执行 configure 时报错提示，可以加上 “–without-readline” 从而避开这个ERROR，
但Postgresql官方不推荐这么做，所以还是安装吧。
