Hmm, readline is a package already provided by SuSE. If you would go and make your own, it's likely that it will conflict with that one. The 32bit runtime version is already included in baselibs-32bit. You would only need the 32bit -devel rpm, and if you already have the (64 bit) readline-devel rpm installed (so that you already have all necessary headers), all you need is the .so link in /lib to make the linker find the library also in 32 bit mode. You would miss the static library, but that might be acceptable.
I.e. all you probably have to do is install baselibs-32bit, and % cd /lib % ln -sf libreadline.so.4.3 libreadline.so % ln -sf libhistory.so.4.3 libhistory.so
Ah, so this smells like a bug in the packaging for baselibs-32bit. If the rpm were to add those links itself, all may be well. -- Steve Williams "The woods are lovely, dark and deep. steve at icarus.com But I have promises to keep, http://www.icarus.com and lines to code before I sleep, http://www.picturel.com And lines to code before I sleep."
