Developers,

today I installed R-snapshot (June 2) on my Redhat Sparc/Linux 4.2,
with no problems, but obviously this version of R was compiled 
without 'readline' (I also have R-0.61.3, which works as expected 
with readline). Output from './configure', related to readline:
...
checking for rl_callback_read_char in -lreadline... (cached) no
...
checking for readline/history.h... (cached) yes
...
I have 'readline-2.0-10' according to 'rpm ...'. Does 0.62 need a
more recent version of readline than 0.61? Or is the problem
somewhere else?
