title: Installing readline 6.0 on OS X
body: <p>I'm trying to install readline 6 from source but run into an error during 'make install'.</p>
  
  <p>Here is the end of the output after executing 'sudo make install'</p>
  
  <pre><code>( cd shlib ; make  DESTDIR= install )
  /bin/sh ../support/mkdirs /usr/local/lib
  /bin/sh ../support/shlib-install -O darwin9.7.0 -d /usr/local/lib -b /usr/local/bin -i "/usr/bin/install -c -m 644" libhistory.6.0.dylib
  /bin/sh ../support/shlib-install -O darwin9.7.0 -d /usr/local/lib -b /usr/local/bin -i "/usr/bin/install -c -m 644" libreadline.6.0.dylib
  install: you may need to run ldconfig
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I know that <code>ldconfig</code> isn't installed by default on OS X, and I read somewhere that it shouldn't be needed to fix this issue. I believe it has something to do with dynamic libraries, but I haven't been able to find out how to fix the issue, anyone have any insight?</p>
  
  <p>FYI, I'm running OS X on an intel 2.4ghz macbook </p>
  
  <p>thanks</p>
  
  <p>P.S. I also applied the 3 available readline 6 patches before running configure and make</p>
