I have installed readline 6.0. $ ls /home/pengy/utility/linux/lib/libreadline.* /home/pengy/utility/linux/lib/libreadline.a /home/pengy/utility/linux/lib/libreadline.so /home/pengy/utility/linux/lib/libreadline.so.6 /home/pengy/utility/linux/lib/libreadline.so.6.0 $ ls /home/pengy/utility/linux/lib/libhistory.* /home/pengy/utility/linux/lib/libhistory.a /home/pengy/utility/linux/lib/libhistory.so /home/pengy/utility/linux/lib/libhistory.so.6 /home/pengy/utility/linux/lib/libhistory.so.6.0 But R still doesn't configure it correctly. Would you please what might be the problem?
