Is that what you meant > did not work for you? I updated to 1.20 (and adjusted to the latest package naming standards btw) which should fix the issue according to the bug report. Packages should appear soon here: http://buildfarm.opencsw.org/experimental.html#pm_term_readline_gnu Please let me know if this resolves you issue so the package can be released.
