Hello,
I am unable to install python3.9.1 on openSUSE 15.2.
I start with a new basic openSUSE 15.2 leap installation where python3.6 is correctly working.
I want to install 3.9 in addition to it and I do:
# zypper in readline-devel
# zypper in libffi-devel
$ tar -xvf Python-3.9.1.tar.xz
$ ./configure
# make altinstall --> Successfully installed pip-20.2.3

$ python3.9 --> ModuleNotFoundError : No module named 'readline'
apart from auto completion with tab is seems to work fine.
How can I add the readline module as readline-devel library is available at compile time?

$ pip3.9 --version --> ModuleNotFoundError : No module named '_posixsubprocess'
After reading many posts I still have no idea how to solve this. This way pip3.9 is not usable.

I hope you can give me a hint to solve this, thanks
