R help - Sep 2008 - Problem during porting R-2.7.2 on HP-UP 11.11 PA-Risc

Dear "R"-Team,
we had some problem to install R-2.7.2 on HP-UX 11.11 on PA-Risc platform.

1.) i load down the Software and made a extract of the tar-file in a
specific Directory.

2.) i follow the instructions on the INSTALL file:
     ./configure

3.) during "configure" we got a error message see below:
     checking for history_truncate_file... no
     configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are
not available

    and the "configure" stops.


on the HP-UX server there are the HP Compiler and the GNU compiler with
gmake and and ... installed.
Please have a look to my logfiles. Hopefully you had a idea what we can do.
Thanks a lot for your help

(See attached file: BASF_CONFIGURE.log.txt)(See attached file:
config.log.txt)

very best regards

Dear Peter,
thank you so much for your help, you have 100% the correct ideas.
Please excuse me when i contact you again. My compile is 99% done, but a
other error appears,
I have the one or other idea and i checked the admin-manual, but please
see, what do you are meaning.
I think my problem is upcoming from "/lib/libRblas.sl"

We are starting the configure with following options:
./configure MAKE=gmake CC=gcc --with-readline=no --with-x=no
--prefix=/opt/R --exec-prefix=/opt/R/bin --bindir=/opt/R/bin --without-blas
--without-tcltk --without-libpng --without-system-zlib

     BLAS                   use --without-blas
     Tcl/Tk                 use --without-tcltk
     libpng                 use --without-libpng
     jpeg                   use --without-jpeglib
     zlib                   use --without-system-zlib
