Issue #19616 has been reported by hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA). ---------------------------------------- Bug #19616: Remove ext/readline from Ruby 3.3 https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19616 * Author: hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- We still bundled ext/readline that is GNU Readline wrapper. But we already have reline written by pure Ruby. It's time to remove it from Ruby releases. Motivation: * We can skip to install readline or libedit for testing ruby language. * I hope to reduce external dependencies from the perspective of ruby-build maintainer. If users hope to use ext/readline, they can install it with `gem install readline-ext`. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
