I think GHC should just always use editline. We already need to support using an in-tree editline for Windows, so we can also use it on other platforms where editline isn't easily available or is too old. Also supporting readline just makes the build system more complicated for little extra benefit, and also means that there are more configurations to bitrot.
plus it will mean that sometime, without any notice, you used gpl'ed software - this may add more headache for commercial developers -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
