Hello John, I am not sure this is a bug. At least it is not a Debian specific behaviour. Readline is disabled at runtime since there is no terminal to read from. When readline is not compiled in, it says 'readline not compiled in' instead. Thanks for using Debian, -- Bill. <ballo...@debian.org> Imagine a large red swirl here.
