Summary: can't import readline in 2.1.1c1
Initial Comment:
I get the following error for 2.1.1c1 built on SuSE
Linux 7.1 , gcc 2.95.2 :
>>> import readline
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: undefined symbol: BC
Needless to say, this makes the interactive session
interesting as readline is not imported on startup.
Temporary fix for me is to use readline.so from 2.0 -
it seems to work fine in 2.1.1c1.

Ok, I looked at the Setup file for 2.0 from SuSE. They had
readline readline.c -lreadline -lncurses #-ltermcap
whereas 2.1.1c1 had
readline readline.c -lreadline -ltermcap
I made the change, recompiled, and everything is dandy.

Did this work in Python 2.1(.0) ? Nothing readline-specific
changed in 2.1.1c1... It looks like setup.py is using the
wrong libraries to link with. When you enable readline.so in
2.0's Setup file, do you edit the list of include/library
paths or libraries linked with ?
I don't have a SuSe installation to test with, unfortunately.
