Can you please try the following: - do you have libncurses-devel installed? On some systems readline requires ncurses and its development packages - if you don't have that package installed please install it and recompile from scratch in a different directory, just to be sure - if that doesn't help please post the complete logfile somewhere on the net (after compressing it) and post a link here so I (or others) can take a closer look. The dependencies of readline have been discussed in #sage-devel before, but there hasn't been any resolution yet. It seems to be distribution dependent if they are needed or not.

Without further information (the install.log file, which you haven't made available), I can only suggest that you at least try this binary: http://www.sagemath.org/SAGEbin/linux/64bit/sage-2.8.4.1-x86_64-debian_maximal-x86_64-Linux.tar.gz It's for Debian, so it might not work because of library dependencies, but it is worth a try.

Could you check if you have termcap and its development package installed? readline usually defaults to termcap and only uses ncurses as an optional library to link against, but who knows what the OpenSuSE people did.

Readline builds fine, but there is trouble when building python: gcc -pthread -shared build/temp.linux-x86_64-2.5/usr/local/ sage-2.8.4.1/spkg/build/python-2.5.1.p6/src/Modules/readline.o -L /usr/ lib/termcap -L/usr/local/sage-2.8.4.1/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib - lreadline -lncurses -o build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.5/readline.so /usr/ lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.1.2/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ ld: /usr/lib/libncurses.a(lib_termcap.o): relocation R_X86_64_32S against `numcodes' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/lib/libncurses.a: could not read symbols: Bad value collect2: ld returned 1 exit status So, the interesting question is now: What to do? Python's configure has no switch to enable or disable [n]curses, so please reinstall that rpm and try again. Otherwise we need to set up a VMWare image with OpenSuSE 10.2 and see if the problem only happens to you.

I just did yast -i ncurses-devel but this didn't change a thing, at least not for Python.
