Thanks Dim,
I didn't realise they had that package - probably because I tend to skim
over the PostgreSQL related ones, assuming they're connected with the
ready-built version. A good lesson for me.
I'm new to Debian - just switched from Red Hat as Fedora seems to be
getting monstrous and too
Thanks for the pointer to the correct packages. I didn't realise that
the dev versions had the generic libs but, yes, you do need them for the
headers anyway.
Apologies for wasting time.

I've just had the common problem with not finding the readline library
while compiling/linking 8.4.4 on a new linux (Debian 5 - lenny). Nothing
seemed to work: --with-libraries=/lib and pointing CFLAGs there all
failed to find readline. The installed packages though said that it was
present.
