-You should use at least CLN V1.0.3, since during the development of
-GiNaC various bugs have been discovered and fixed in earlier versions.
-To protect you, the "configure" script checks for a feature that was
-added in V1.0.3 so it won't continue with earlier versions anyhow.
-Please install CLN properly on your system before continuing with
-GiNaC.

-Problems with building ginsh
-----------------------------
-
-The most common reason why this doesn't succeed is the absence of
-libreadline and/or the corresponding header files. Depending on what
-your system/distribution is, you will have to install a package called
-libreadline and maybe libreadline-dev. If your system's vendor
-doesn't supply such packages, go to <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/readline/>
-and compile it yourself. After that it should work fine.
-
-If you want to build a completely static ginsh and your compiler still
-complains about unresolved objects try linking with libncurses, too.

-Working with the Cint C++ interpreter
-=====================================
-
-The interface to the Cint C++ interpreter is currently in an alpha
-state. Please see <http://root.cern.ch/root/Cint.html> to learn about
-Cint and install it before installing ginaccint. For the tool
-makecint to work properly it must know where Cint has its system
-directory. This is usually done by exporting $CINTSYSDIR to point to
-the proper place. With GiNaC you may either try to export that
-variable and type
- $ ./configure --with-cint
-or specify it on the command line saying
- $ ./configure --with-cint=/my/path/to/cintsysdir
-Good luck!

+Problems building ginsh
+-----------------------
+
+The GiNaC interactive shell, ginsh, makes use of GNU readline to provide
+command line editing and history. If readline library and/or headers are
+missing on your system, the configure script will issue a warning. In this
+case you have two options:
+
+1) (the easiest) If you don't intend to use ginsh (i.e. if you need GiNaC
+library to compile some piece of software), ignore it. ginsh builds just
+fine without readline (obviously, it won't support the command line history
+and editing).
+
+2) Install GNU readline and run the configure script once again. Depending on
+what your system/distribution is, you will have to install a package called
+libreadline and libreadline-dev (or readline-devel). If your system's vendor
+doesn't supply such packages, go to <ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/readline/> and
+compile it yourself. Note that non-GNU versions of libreadline (in particular
+one shipped with Mac OS X) are not supported at the moment.
