On a Mandrake system you should be able to install the .rpm by force. I
really hate to recommend this, but you can do this:
rpm -i --nodeps gpsim-0.20.14.*rpm
The other thing you can try is to change cli/input.cc. Around line 30 or
so there is:
//#define RALF
#define SCOTT
Change it to:
#define RALF
//#define SCOTT
And try compiling.

I've made up my mind: readline is history. I'm tired of it. In 0.20.16 I'm
going to replace it with command line interface that is in ncftp. This
will be totally self contained in gpsim. However, this change will not
occur until after I've completed the latest round of changes of SDCC. I
estimate that mid to late April readline and gpsim will be happily
divorced.
