 Description   

Installed 1.1.2 on brand new VM with latest debian 9 network install which is 9.2. Running postCfg you get the error:
/usr/local/mariadb/columnstore/bin/postConfigure
/usr/local/mariadb/columnstore/bin/postConfigure: error while loading shared libraries: libreadline.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The specific library version is not installed. This can be worked around by manually symlinking to the correct file:

cd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/
 
ln -s libreadline.so libreadline.so.5

It appears debian 9.2 does not install libreadline 5 by default. This can be installed by using:

apt-get install libreadline5

so we may just need to update doc.

docs and read mes have been updated, added libreadline5 dependency..

how to test, on debian 9, install the debian packages. will fail if libreadline5 is not installed

Verified requirement in Github's readme file and kb doc "Preparing for ColumnStore Installation - 1.1.x"
