Dependencies on external libraries are a task of distro vendors and the distros already contain GDB patches on their own. And the fix is not straightforward as trying to avoid this internal variable reference one has to face the echoing behavior which I find brokwn already even with the bundled readline and the existing internal variable reference: Standard terminal readline: $ gdb -q (gdb) (gdb) TUI behavior: $ gdb -q --tui (gdb) The TUI window should emulate the standard terminal window so the behavior should be the same, shouldn't it? But I do not have a fix for this first part. Regards, Jan
