#39878 closed defect

port-2.2.0 has disabled readline support, and pythons won't accept inputs from an IM — at Version 2

Reported by: fukuda@… Owned by: macports-tickets@…
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.2.0
Keywords: Cc: jwa@…, mcalhoun@…
Port: python27 python33 py27-readline py33-readline

Description (last modified by larryv (Lawrence Velázquez))

"selfupdate" updated my port command from 2.1.3 to 2.2.0, and in that occasion, the command announced that

Warning: Disabling readline support due to readline in /usr/local
Installing new MacPorts release in /opt/local as root:admin; permissions 0755; Tcl-Package in /Library/Tcl 

Since then, python27 and python33 (from MacPorts) on Terminal.app on Lion won't accept the input from AquaSKK.

Some facts I believe relevant:

  • these two worked fine till the upgrade of the port.
  • these two are still working fine on Mountain Lion, in which I have not upgrade port to 2.2.0
  • "readline," "py27-readline", "py33-readline" remain activated.
  • /usr/local does not include readline libraries except
    • /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/universal-darwin8.0/readline.bundle
    • /usr/local/man/man3/readline.3

All that warning means is that MacPorts base was not compiled with readline support. How could that affect anything else?
