In my Ubuntu machine (these are all readline-related modules in my machine, not only the ones that is needed for python), I have these packages installed: v lib32readline-dev - v libghc6-readline-dev - v libghc6-readline-doc - v libghc6-readline-prof- v libreadline-dbg - v libreadline-dev - i libreadline5 - GNU readline and history libraries, run-ti i A libreadline5-dev - GNU readline and history libraries, develo i readline-common - GNU readline and history libraries, common try matching that and ./configure then make. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
