Yes you're right. It has sometimes worked and sometimes not worked for me so I just rebuild sage from scratch. In any case, good work to the alpha6 team! I replaced 'standard/ readline*p2.spkg' with the new 'readline*p3.spkg' and built from scratch, on Ubuntu 11.10/amd64 with libreadline-dev installed, and it has built and works perfectly. Even the sage readline is working! This build marks the first time since 4.7.2 that sage has built on this system with libreadline-dev installed, so I think we've conquered the readline/r issue. Good job!
