configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not
available

then i cannot "make".

why?

You need the development package for readline.  Depending on the 
distribution of Linux you use, this will be called readline-dev, 
readline-devel, or something of that nature.  Use your package manager 
to find and install it.
