It is possible to run psh with readline support by installing dev-perl/Term-ReadLine-Perl (or fron CPAN Term::ReadLine::Gnu) and TermReadKey. But the ebuild does not give you the option to use this dependency via a use flag or by default. It would be nice to do this in next ebuilds. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
thanks, I added support for USE=readline in 1.8-r1
dev-perl/Term-ReadLine-Perl does not work (at least not on my system as it gives me an ioctl error). you need Term::ReadLine::Gnu... i'll attach an ebuild for Term-Readline-Gnu ...
