Problem: readline in Python 2.1 on SuSE 7.1

[Huaiyu Zhu]

Problem installing Python 2.1 on SuSE 7.1 with readline support.

I've tried several variations of the configuration options

#readline readline.c -lreadline -ltermcap
#readline readline.c -lreadline
#readline readline.c -L/usr/lib -lreadline
readline readline.c -lreadline -L/usr/share/misc/termcap

None of them worked.  Any ideas?  Following are what I found on the system:

$ locate termcap
/etc/termcap
/usr/include/termcap.h
/usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/termcap.pl
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/i586-linux/termcap.ph
/usr/lib/zsh/3.1.9/zsh/termcap.so
/usr/share/doc/packages/wterm/etc/wterm.termcap
/usr/share/emacs/20.7/etc/termcap.src
/usr/share/man/man3/termcap.3ncurses.gz
/usr/share/man/man5/termcap.5.gz
/usr/share/misc/termcap
/usr/share/zsh/help/termcap
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/etc/sun.termcap
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/etc/xterm.termcap
