Hi, I tried to install python2.4.2. Unfortunately building 'readline'
extension failed.
Here is what I got: (It is a bit long. If you are impatient, please look
at the end where it reports the warning.)

*** WARNING: renaming "readline" since importing it failed:
libreadline.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
It complains that libreadline.so.5 does not exist. However, I have
libreadline.so.5 installed at /gs/home/jianq/lib which is among the
linking path (-L/gs/home/jianq/lib).
I have been struggling with this for a long time and sincerely hope that
someone can help me with this.
Thanks,
Jian
