Interesting. the ZIP file has an empty readline folder!

@chrisant996 this is what I see, and I cannot click on that folder. You might want to double check that it did not crosslink with your other readline. Strange name...

Oh you tried to just copy files from a .zip file.

It's a git submodule, but you're not using git to access it, so you don't get the files.

Can you instead use git clone with the repo I shared?

(The "strange name" is actually a name "readline" and the associated commit hash for that submodule.)
