This isn't a mysql-proxy question, but a lua one. You may get better help using the Lua channels and
mailing-lists.

Let's see if I can help:

  http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=readline%2Freadline.h&mode=exactfilename&suite=oneiric&arch=any

lists:

  http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/libreadline6-dev

as provider of that file. You should install it and try again.
