It's probable that the nmh package fails to list a dependency to acquire
libreadline.  Depending on your version of Ubuntu, different versions of
libreadline are availble.  The error above has a `6' meaning the nmh
you're running was built to expect package libreadline6.

https://packages.ubuntu.com provides various ways to search Ubuntu's
packages, e.g. what packages provide a file with libreadline somewhere
in its name.  `lsb_release -a' will show the version of Ubuntu that
you're running.
