Agreed. If we can create a database, someone can get libedit to work 100%! There is no excuse for this not being done, seeing that libreadline has been (viral) GPL forever and has changed APIs regularly and broken things for us. Even going with GNUTLS does not help us with that. Can someone take ownership of this, get involved with the libedit folks, get Debian to use their fixes, and solve this problem for us? -- Bruce Momjian <br...@momjian.us> http://momjian.us EnterpriseDB http://enterprisedb.com + It's impossible for everything to be true. + -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
