#36735: Macports pythons 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 do file-globbing as if a UNIX shell instead

Component:  ports         |    Version:  2.1.2
 Keywords:                |       Port:  python25,python26,python27
--------------------------+----------------------------------------
 All my Apple Python behaves normally (you type a tab and it tabs. But all
 my MacPorts pythons instead want to do file completion on my home
 directory.

 Since the last time I used interactive mode, I've installed
 py26-levenshtein and py27-levinshtein and py26-pip and py27-pip and use
 the pips to install unidecode. That said, python2.5, which hasn't been
 touched in terms of modules in a couple of years, does the same bizarre
 thing.

 To clarify: when in the interactive shell, if I type a tab at the ... I
 want it to indent, if I type it after, say, a variable name, I want it to
 tab over and justify the line before I type the = and a space. Instead it
 simply ignores tabs. If you type 2 tabs quickly, it asks you if you want
 to see all XX possibliities then presents an ls of your home dir.  This
 shouldn't be confused with readline or libedit autocomplete set up in
 startup (which I don't have, anyway). This is something not asked for and
 bizarre.
