Hi 1) configure fails too easily if your libraries and include files are in a funny place. When you specify --prefix=/somewhere, maybe it should use "-L /somewhere/lib" and "-I/somewhere/include" by default when checking if things exist. Workaround: I had to add the options to LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS myself to get readline noticed.
2) The makefile contains many rm. I usually like to alias rm="rm -i" for safety, so I had to answer (y/n) a lot of times. Could the makefile please use rm -f?
