I think that I have successfully installed libreadline.so.6.
But still got an error -- libreadline.so.6 needed   during R installation on
SUSE Linux.

Problem: nothing provides libreadline.so.6 needed by
R-patched-2.12.0-3.1.i586
 Solution 1: do not ask to install a solvable providing R-base
 Solution 2: break R-patched by ignoring some of its dependencies
