[Bug 816758] Re: Cant type some characters in readline()
Fred, thats good news. It seems there is already a Debian bug open about packaging that new version, which I'll link. Its highly unlikely FSF will re-license readline. It very specifically has a GPL license so as to encourage software authors to use the GPL. I see no issue at all with the php package.. libedit is really the only piece of software preventing you from entering the characters. So, marking the php5 task as Invalid. ** Changed in: php5 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid ** Changed in: libedit (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #579729 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=579729 ** Also affects: libedit (Debian) via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=579729 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Summary changed: - Cant type some characters in readline() + libedit lacks utf-8 support -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to php5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/816758 Title: libedit lacks utf-8 support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libedit/+bug/816758/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

http://www.thrysoee.dk/editline/ The page says UTF-8 support was added since version 0:35.

[Bug 816758] Re: Cant type some characters in readline()
Hi Fred! Thanks for taking the time to file this bug in Ubuntu. This would appear to be a problem with libedit, not PHP, so I'm reassigning it as such. Its likely that adding UTF-8 functionality to libedit is a new feature, so setting importance to Wishlist. ** Package changed: php5 (Ubuntu) => libedit (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: libedit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to php5 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/816758 Title: Cant type some characters in readline() To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libedit/+bug/816758/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
