ubuntu 10.04 and libreadline

[jmet...@gmail.com]

Hello,

On a ubuntu (10.04) did apt-get the packages recommended by "rvm notes"

---8<---
jmettraux@akula:~$ sudo apt-get install build-essential bison openssl libreadline5 libreadline-dev curl git-core zlib1g zlib1g-dev libssl-dev vim libsqlite3-0 libsqlite3-dev sqlite3 libreadline5-dev libreadline6-dev libxml2-dev git-core subversion autoconf

openssl is already the newest version.
curl is already the newest version.
git-core is already the newest version.
zlib1g is already the newest version.
vim is already the newest version.
libsqlite3-0 is already the newest version.
git-core is already the newest version.
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libreadline5-dev: Conflicts: libreadline-dev but 6.1-1 is to be installed
libreadline6-dev: Conflicts: libreadline5-dev but 5.2-7build1 is to be installed
E: Broken packages

Dropping libreadline5-dev and libreadline6-dev, and adding libreadline-dev seems to fix the issue.

Here is a patch :
