Thanks for the report. Can you please add a little more description on reproducing this issue along with OS details ? By "the installation of readline (6.2.4.1) [1]" are you referring to a third party package that you have installed with Python that resulted in a crash in Python interpreter? I tried it with master in a virtual env and cannot reproduce the same. Is this reproducible with latest Python or Python 3.6 version? Also it seems you are installing it as a root user does this happen only for root user or even with a virtualenv? ``` (bpo33085-env) karthi@ubuntu-s-1vcpu-1gb-blr1-01:~$ pip install readline [snip] Installing collected packages: readline Running setup.py install for readline ... done Successfully installed readline-6.2.4.1 (bpo33085-env) karthi@ubuntu-s-1vcpu-1gb-blr1-01:~$ python Python 3.8.0a0 (heads/master:73820a6, Sep 14 2018, 18:33:26) [GCC 5.4.0 20160609] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> ``` [1] : https://pypi.org/project/readline/ (moved to https://pypi.org/project/gnureadline/) Thanks ---------- nosy: +xtreak _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33085> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
