[Freeciv] need help with readline (not strictly freeciv related)

[Erik Sigra <freeciv@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I wanted to use readline with Freeciv and downloaded readline from 

  <ftp://ftp.isy.liu.se/pub/gnu/readline/>

unpacked it, ran configure, cd shlib and make. 

Then the problems start: 

freeciv@a77:~/readline-4.1/shlib > su root 
Password: 
root@a77:/home/freeciv/readline-4.1/shlib > make install 
/bin/sh ../support/mkdirs /usr/local/lib 
/bin/sh ../support/shlib-install -O linux-gnu -d /usr/local/lib -i
"/usr/bin/ginstall -c -m 644" libhistory.so.4.1 
/bin/sh ../support/shlib-install -O linux-gnu -d /usr/local/lib -i
"/usr/bin/ginstall -c -m 644" libreadline.so.4.1 
install: you may need to run ldconfig 
root@a77:/home/freeciv/readline-4.1/shlib > /sbin/ldconfig 
/sbin/ldconfig: Input file /usr/lib/libImlib.so not found.

then Freeciv configure doesn't work (I removed configure.cache):

checking for rl_callback_handler_install in -lreadline... no
configure: error: Specified --with-readline but did not find
library.
