Re: Readline support in psql -- worked earlier for me

Loosely related:

Fedora is apparently not the only Linux distribution showing a
hard-to-explain predilection for messing with readline. With one
particular debian-etch-based distro (voyage linux), having ~/.inputrc
with just "set editing-mode vi" results into bash using ksh completion
keybindings. I needed to add "TAB complete" to get the default bash
behaviour back.
