 There has been a recent report about Sage not building on (64bit) OpenSuse
 11., see

 http://groups.google.com/group/sage-
 devel/browse_thread/thread/6947016a2d3f664e#

 One issue is readline, and if one looks at the following snippet from the
 readline-6.0.p1 spkg-install:
 {{{
 if [ -f /etc/SuSE-release ]; then
     if [ `grep 11.1 /etc/SuSE-release > /dev/null; echo $?` -eq 0 ]; then
         echo "OpenSUSE 11.1 detected"
         if [ -d /usr/include/readline/ ]; then
             echo "The development version of libreadline is installed ->
 copying"
             if [ `uname -p` = "x86_64" ]; then
                 cp /lib64/libreadline.so.* "$SAGE_LOCAL"/lib
             else
                 cp /lib/libreadline.so.* "$SAGE_LOCAL"/lib
             fi
             cp -r /usr/include/readline  "$SAGE_LOCAL"/include
             exit 0
 }}}
 it seems clear why this did work for OpenSuse 11.1 --- but not OpenSuse
 11.2.
 The user report mentioned also a problem with building Symmetrica
 (probably $SAGE64 is not set, but should).
 Maybe there are even more problems lurking.

 Can someone confirm these issues (I don't have access to a 64bit OpenSuse
 11.2 installation myself)?
