I have to admit, this change in debian packaging -- which I have
noticed, and not a little -- makes my hands angry. I considered
looking into the problem, but were I doing it, I would have considered
teaching psql to support NSS or GnuTLS as totally viable alternatives
to this problem, as to keep readline.
Supporting GnuTLS would be really nice.. That's how we addressed the
same issue w/ OpenLDAP (I was involved in that as a Debian
co-maintainer). GnuTLS has limitations too, but in the end, I find
those more palatable (and the GnuTLS maintainer is certainly willing to
work on improving it) than dropping readline. :/
Strikes me as a lot of work to buy nothing much.
