>Description:
First of all: I am using pkgsrc-current with nightly updates from cvs.

The problem:

security/gnutls was installed as one of many dependencies during the 
installation of www/midori on an almost fresh system with devel/readline having 
already been installed due to other packages.
While compiling security/gnutls, the above error mentioned occurred:

"-lreadline not found"

I double checked that it was installed, and even ran a make update on 
devel/readline, again re-checking that it was there. The error persisted.

I then checked security/gnutls' Makefile, and noticed that the 
readline-buildlink3.mk was not there. I inserted it, and gave it a try after 
running make clean, with the result that security/gnutls now installed 
correctly, without complaining about not finding -lreadline.
>How-To-Repeat:
Simply try to install security/gnutls. At least on my sparc64, it failed.
>Fix:
Here's the patch I applied to get it to work properly. I would have attached it 
as a file, had the form provided an appropriate possibility for this.
