Here are the steps to build Sage 4.2.1 with this updated package: 1. Download a source tarball of Sage 4.2.1. Disregard this step if you have already downloaded this tarball. 2. Uncompress the tarball to a directory you have read and write permissions, e.g. your home directory. 3. Remove the readline package that comes with Sage 4.2.1. You can work through this step as follows. Say SAGE_ROOT is the root directory of the uncompressed Sage tarball. From a bash shell, do: cd SAGE_ROOT/spkg/standard rm -f readline-6.0.spkg 4. Download the updated readline package from this sage.math [1] directory. Then copy it over to the directory SAGE_ROOT/spkg/standard. 5. cd to SAGE_ROOT and issue make. This should start Sage's build process to compile Sage with the newer readline package. I make no guarantees that this updated package would work for you because I don't have access to any openSUSE 11.2 machine in order to test. However, please report any problems that you encounter while building Sage with this newer readline package.
