Description (last modified by ryandesign (Ryan Carsten Schmidt))
just upgraded to Sierra 10.12 so uninstalled everything and reinstalled what I actually use.
when installing python36 it reports to install py36-readline if using it by the command line, but I've searched for py36-readline and it doesn't appear to exist...
---> Activating python36 @3.6.0b1_0+universal
To make this the default Python or Python 3 (i.e., the version run by the 'python' or 'python3' commands), run one or both of:
sudo port select --set python python36
sudo port select --set python3 python36

This is still the case now that Python 3.6.0 is released. python36 setup requests the installation of py36-readline, which doesn't exist. There is a port named py36-gnureadline.

Sometimes we wait until a stable version of a language is released before adding third-party modules for it. I know I do that for php. Maybe that's also the case for python. python36 is currently at version 3.6.0b1, which is beta, not stable.
