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.
