[R] redhat 7.2 and rpm

[Erich Neuwirth]

since less than 24 hours my notbook runs linux,
redhat 7.2

the first additional package i installed was R.
i used the rpm from the server.

then, R would not start, complaining that it could not find

libreadline.so.4.1

redhat 7.2 installed libreadline.so.4.2
and aliases 
libreadline.so.4
libreadline.so.

i i created a symbolic link named
libreadline.so.4.1
to
libreadline.so.4.2
and then things worked.

should it be like that.
or should R try libreadline.so or at least
libreadline.so.4?
