Bug #934: readline.h not found during configure

Bill Eichin (bill@eichin.org) reports a bug with a severity of 2
The lower the number the more severe it is.

Short Description
readline.h not found during configure

Long Description
I'm running debian woody, and I've been revisiting this problem for several months.  I had no choice during compile
exceptto select --without-readline in order to move on in the compile process.  Just about twenty minutes ago, I found
thatinstalling the "libedit-dev" package provided me with the "/usr/include/libedit/libreadline.h file.  Symlinking
/usr/include/libeditto /usr/include/libreadline made the configure process succeed without disabling readline. 

I don't know exactly who to complain to, or what exactly to complain about.  So, here it it, and if you want to check
outthe details, I'll get you a logon into the server I'm doing this on.  Thanks, in advance, for having a bug reporting
system:)
