Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.10-1+b1
Severity: wishlist

Please implement readline when reading lines from the terminal
interactively (aptitude upgrade/install <packages>/etc).  When trying
to resolve dependencies etc ("+ slocate -dlocate"), one often has to
type similar lines, and be able to edit them.  To have the readline
history between sessions when one has to abort an installation would
be even better.  All this comes almost for free by linking in
libreadline.
