Hi,

> but since I use RedHat this doesn''t work for me.
even i faced same problem, but not in RedHat OS, but solaris OS.

> Is it necessary to recompile ruby? :(

I assume you will be having the source of ruby compilation, say after
un-taring ruby-1.8.5.tgz you will get a directory with the name
ruby-1.8.5, get into this directory.  Type the following command
"find . -name readline.so".  If you can find this file under that
directory, this means make install was not successful. So, you can try
one more time make install (not completely recompiling).  And even
after this din''t solve your problem means, as you said you can install
readline (library, plz don''t install readline-devel) and necessary
dependency this should solve the problem.   ReadLine is library used
for reading data from command line.

Thanks,
