Comment

this problem exists on 3 different debian servers. each server has allready compiled php versions installed (on january, via same phpbrew installation).
what ive done:

$ phpbrew update
$ phpbrew --debug install 7.0 +everything

so, readline is installed. i just cannot compile a new php version after i updated phpbrew (doesnt matter with or without extensions).

This fixed it for me: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23085076/readline-readline-h-file-not-found#23085474

Run sudo apt-get install libreadline-dev

Under Fedora 29 you need "readline-devel" to build. Maybe we should add that to the requirements since the default phpbrew install 7.0 includes that extension.

Edit: I ran into this issue today

on OSX installed missing dependency using homebrew
brew install readline
