readline is not a standard solaris library.  It must be added by your sys-admin.

There is a version on the companion cd that comes with Solaris 8.
That will load in /opt/sfw/lib (sfw = Sun FreeWare).

However, you will have to tell the amanda package where the library is located,
it will not know to look in /opt/sfw/lib (or wherever you install readline).
This would be done with -L<library dir> and -R<library dir> options in the
LDFLAGS macro in the makefiles.
