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. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14-2-k7 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages libreadline5 depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-8.1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libncurses5 5.5-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii readline-common 5.1-2 GNU readline and history libraries libreadline5 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
