Package: libreadline5
Version: 5.1-1
Followup-For: Bug #343128

I just noticed that this bug also affects irb (from the irb1.8 package,
version 1.8.3-3).

Since Ruby's readline interface doesn't currently provide a way to
access the RL_PROMPT_START_IGNORE and RL_PROMPT_END_IGNORE values, I
simulate this manually by including "\001\001" and "\001\002" in my IRb
prompt.  This works fine with libreadline5 5.0-11, but with the current
version, I get the same behaviour as I saw in psql.
