-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 That hint pointed me to what seems to be the issue.
It seems for me that neither /etc/inputrc nor ~/.inputrc are used on gentoo. Gentoo already has the relevant mappings in /etc/inputrc but it seems to be not set. On debian (to have something to compare) the questionary mappings are not set in /etc/inputrc but are set and working. And I double checked: key[Delete]='^[[3~' key[End]='^[[F' key[Home]='^[[H' and in inputrc: $if mode=emacs ... "\e[H": beginning-of-line "\e[F": end-of-line $endif So, finding out why the inputrc's are not read should fix the problem.
