2009-04-11 13:25:15 arekkusu description Binary package hint: python3 Jaunty beta with all update. I have a problem with the python3 interpreter. It doesn't seem to intercept keystroke properly. Here is an exemple when I press the right arrow key in the interpreter: :~$python3 Python 3.0.1+ (r301:69556, Apr 5 2009, 14:19:06) [GCC 4.3.3] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> ^[[C It does the same (with different code) for the other arrow keys, delete key... >>> ^[[D^[[A^[[B^[[C^[[3~ Other that this the interpreter does work.

After searching a bit I found that this was due to not having the package "libreadline5-dev" installed. After compiling one more time with the package installed the keystroke problem was gone. So it looks to me as if the the python3 package provided for Ubuntu 9.04 is bloken. Or am I the only one having this problem ??
