Re: [Cgdb-devel] Re: cgdb-0.3.1

Hi Kirill,

I just repeated the problem you are seeing. It appears that cgdb needs
readline-4.2 or greater to compile. You can download readline from
ftp.gnu.org/gnu/readline. Then you can configure cgdb to use readline.
If you have trouble with this, please let us know.

Thanks,
Bob Rossi
