rlwrap package dependency issue

rlwrap package dependency issue

[Sumudu Fernando]

The rlwrap package seems to be missing a dependency / have an
incorrect one; it automatically installed the "readline" package but I
had to manually install the "libreadline6" package before it would
work.  This was with the latest setup.exe.

Thanks for a great piece of software!

Thanks for the hint.

Unfortunately the rlwrap maintainer has gone AWOL since 2006.  I took
over maintainership and prepared a new rlwrap-0.37-1 package.
