Public bug reported:
There is a fairly critical readline6 bug that has been fixed with an official
patch, but none of the major distros seem to have built with the fix. The
patch can be found at
ftp://ftp.cwru.edu/pub/bash/readline-6.2-patches
The problem in question is fixed by patch 003, but
As a side note, I downloaded the .dsc and the Ubuntu 12.04 source
package and notices that the readline62_001 patch found on the GNU
Readline FTP site is included in the current build as the patch
readline62_001.diff. So, I think it is just a matter of including the
readline62_002, readline62_003,
