Issue #11084 has been updated by hsbt (Hiroshi SHIBATA).

Status changed from Assigned to Rejected

The last update of rb-readline is 2 years ago. I think we shouldn't replace it. 

And @aycabta try to create the readline alternative. If we replace readline to pure ruby implementation, we should use it.

* Target version: 
----------------------------------------
Users who want to build ruby needs to prepare readline library. 
Example for https://github.com/sstephenson/ruby-build/wiki#suggested-build-environment

Preparation of building environment is hard for many users.

I propose to use rb-readline that it's pure ruby implementation of readline instead of ext/readline.
