Same here, mysql command line used to read bindings from .editrc in previous versions of Ubuntu Server, now fails to honor them in 20.04 LTS. Strace confirms that libedit is not opening the file .editrc.

Verified with strace'ing the mysql client as well: editrc is no longer picked up, making mysql rather irritating to use. Peeking at the source code, the problematic commit is d253f567 which wraps the editrc code in an "#ifdef HAVE_ISSETUGID" which is BSD only. I am unable to find upstream in version control to help further.
