$summary libreadline is not linked to, and readline functionality in lua interpreter is missing Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. unmask dev-lang/lua and app-eselect/eselect-lua 2. USE="readline" emerge dev-lang/lua:5.4 Actual Results: $ lddtree $(which lua5.4) lua5.4 => /usr/bin/lua5.4 (interpreter => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) liblua5.4.so.0 => /usr/lib64/liblua5.4.so.0 libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 lua5.4 is not linked to libreadline Expected Results: $ lddtree /usr/bin/lua5.4 lua5.4 => /usr/bin/lua5.4 (interpreter => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) liblua5.4.so.0 => /usr/lib64/liblua5.4.so.0 libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 libreadline.so.8 => /lib64/libreadline.so.8 libtinfow.so.6 => /lib64/libtinfow.so.6 libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 lua5.4 linked to libreadline Adding "-DLUA_USE_READLINE" to myCFLAGS should fix this issue. Issue doesn't reproduce with earlier versions, like dev-lang/lua:5.3.

Fragment from linked commit: local myCFLAGS="" use deprecated && myCFLAGS="-DLUA_COMPAT_5_3" use readline && myCFLAGS="-DLUA_USE_READLINE" case "${CHOST}" in *-mingw*) : ;; *) myCFLAGS+=" -DLUA_USE_LINUX" ;; esac If lua[deprecated,readline] is emerged, wouldn't "-DLUA_COMPAT_5_3" be lost? I'd suggest following change: local myCFLAGS="" - use deprecated && myCFLAGS="-DLUA_COMPAT_5_3" - use readline && myCFLAGS="-DLUA_USE_READLINE" + use deprecated && myCFLAGS+=" -DLUA_COMPAT_5_3" + use readline && myCFLAGS+=" -DLUA_USE_READLINE"
Reopening since issue with 'deprecated' USE-flag I reported in previous comment is not fixed yet and there seems to be no reaction. If 'readline' USE-flag is enabled, cflags added by 'deprecated' USE-flag are lost.
