[Ltib] Readline package expected but not found.

[James E. Chargin Jr.]

This is a follow-up to my email starting on 8/13/08, with subject 
"Trouble adding new package in LTIB".

While reviewing the work I've done to introduce the parted package to my 
embedded target via ltib, I notice that one of the optional dependencies 
for parted is readline. I avoided this dependency previously, by 
configuring parted using --without-readline.

I notice that there is a .../ltib/dist/lfs/readline/readline.spec file, 
which makes me question my previous decision to use --without-readline.

However, "./ltib --configure" does not present a choice in its package 
list for readline. Also, packages.lkc does not have an entry for 
PKG_READLINE (or anything similar) and there is not a 
/opt/freescale/pkgs/readline.

Should I expect that there should be an entry for readline in 
packages.lkc and a companion /opt/freescale/pkgs/readline? Should ltib 
allow me to select this package?

Thanks,
Jim
