Comment (by fhgwright):

 Replying to [comment:96 eborisch]:
 > You can install {{{python36 +readline}}}  (python36 with the readline
 variant). I just tried it and it "worked for me."

 Yeah, that works.  I'd moved away from that approach once py-readline
 appeared, since it avoids the need to rebuild Python from source due to
 the non-default variant.  What's weird about this (aside from how long
 libedit's been broken) is that upstream Python uses readline and has to be
 patched to use libedit, so apparently having a less restrictive license
 was prioritized over consistency with upstream.

 It might be nice if the readline variant didn't suggest installing pyXX-
 readline. :-)
