  2. * Build problems
  3. ** readline.c: error: `rl_pending_input' undeclared
  4. This occurs if the Readline library detected by Guile's configure
  5. script is actually the BSD Editline project's supposedly
  6. Readline-compatible library. The immediate fix is to uninstall
  7. Editline and install the real GNU Readline instead. When you do this,
  8. please note that it probably won't work to keep Editline in /usr and
  9. install GNU Readline in /usr/local (or some similar arrangement),
  10. because the Editline library will then still be picked up at link and
  11. run time; it's best (subject to other constraints) to remove Editline
  12. completely.
  13. For the longer term, please also report this problem to the Editline
  14. project, to encourage them to fix it in the next release of their
  15. Readline compatibility library.
