Bug Description
Why do you replicate so big mistake made by Ubuntu guys by using EditLine instead of readline for mysql client 5.1 ?
Current 5.1 percona client version for Ubuntu won't let you use ctrl+r for searching commandline history, and browsing using up arrowkey is no longer distinct ! This makes mysql client really pain in the ass.
But still the same version for Redhat use readline, why ubuntu users have to be punished so badly ?
redhat:
Percona-
mysql --version
mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.47, for unknown-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 5.1
ubuntu:
percona-
mysql --version
mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.91, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 6.0
percona-
mysql --version
mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.47, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using EditLine wrapper
And debian repository mysql-client still uses readline.
Please use readline back in the next 5.1 client release.

Just wanted to mention that Lucid ubuntu version has readline again:
mysql --version
mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.1.41, for debian-linux-gnu (i486) using readline 6.1
So why not fix percona packages too ?
