Use the package manager of your distribution to install the readline
development package -- after some struggle with Mandriva's website I came
to suppose that it's libreadline5-devel for you:

urpmi libreadline5-devel.rpm

After you have successfully installed that package unpack the python archive
into a fresh directory and do the configure/make/install dance. No manual
changes should be necessary.
