Here’s what I get when I do "otool -L /usr/local/bin/psql";
/usr/local/bin/psql: /usr/local/lib/libpq.5.dylib (compatibility version 5.0.0, current version 5.13.0) /usr/local/opt/readline/lib/libreadline.8.dylib (compatibility version 8.0.0, current version 8.0.0) /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1292.0.0)
Right, so that's using a version of libreadline that's supplied by Homebrew (the /usr/local/opt path is the giveaway on that). I don't know whether these things represent an intentional change of libreadline's behavior in Homebrew's build, or a bug, but in either case you should take the issue to the Homebrew support forums. If it's intentional, I imagine there's a way to get the old behavior back. Also, libreadline is fairly configurable, so maybe this boils down to some unintentional change in your ~/.inputrc ? regards, tom lane ————— > Thank you very much, Tom. It seems, then, that we have the
“microscopic” explanation. I’ll have to to a fair bit of research to find out what to do to fix this problem.
