Comment(by cremona):
Bruce and I used readline-6.2.p2.spkg not the p3, and also used it on a
fresh build of 4.7.2 (which had previously stalled building R). So the
following might not be relevant: after building, when we run Sage it gives
a 2-line warning that readline is not available -- and indeed Sage has no
history functions. What did we do wrong?
Bruce also tells me that although he installed all the ubuntu packages
listed on the installation web page, he also had to install dpkg-dev
before Sage would build.
