From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686 (x86_64); en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/20070515 Firefox/2.0.0.4 Description of problem: The plld utility distributed with the pl package needs readline-devel to be installed, as it performs linking with -lreadline. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pl-5.6.34-1.fc6 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: It is probably simplest to look at the sources (src/configure.in) and see that, if readline is present, then plld will link with -lreadline. So either pl should be built in an environment without readline (but this would be a pity) or, for plld to work, both readline and readline-devel are required. Actual Results: plld -cc gcc -c++ g++ -ld g++ \ -ld-options`echo '' -W -Wall -g -O2 | tr " " ","` \ -o ppl_pl ppl_swiprolog.o ppl_pl.o \ -L../../../src/.libs -lppl \ -L../../../Watchdog/src/.libs -lpwl \ -lm -L/usr/lib -lgmpxx -L/usr/lib -lgmp /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lreadline collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Expected Results: Additional info:
Ok, I will add the dependency on readline-devel.
