Is it a ruby bug?

[Tim.Teng]

Hi Folks,
Nowdays I program ruby from windows to suse-linux 10.1, when I
compile the ruby source code and make && make install and then install
rails , I can't start a console. It reports me an error(and this occurs
both in ruby 1.8.5 and ruby 1.8.6 (2007-06-07 patchlevel 36)) :

tim@linux-tim:~/workspace/test> ruby script/console
Loading development environment.
/usr/local/ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/irb/completion.rb:10:in `require': no such file to load -- readline (LoadError)

from /usr/local/ruby/bin/irb:13

I can't find a readline.rb in my system. Well, is it a ruby bug and anybody have ideas on solving this problem ?

Regards.
