 http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/leif/Sage/spkgs/readline-6.2.p4.spkg
 under Ubuntu 11.10 but still get:
 {{{
 ...
 WARNING: Readline services not available on this platform.
 WARNING: The auto-indent feature requires the readline library
 }}}
 > John Cremona reports that building Sage from scratch with the new
 readline p3 solves this warning.

 You just have to:
  1. `sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev` as mentioned above
  1. (Re)install the readline spkg: [[BR]]
     `./sage -f /path/to/readline-6.2.p{2,3,4}`
  1. '''Reinstall the Python spkg:''' [[BR]]
     `./sage -f spkg/standard/python-*` (or `./sage -f python-2.6.4.p13`)
