Bug#874722: lldb: Arrow keys not working properly

[Sierk Rosema]

Package: lldb
Version: 1:3.8-36
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

Normally arrows keys Left and Right can be used to move the cursor and
arrow keys Up and Down to navigate through command history.
When I press an arrow key something like '^[[A' gets typed instead.

The same issue is explained here '
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35882581/lldb-arrow-key-issue'.

The solution given there is "I should not disable the libedit by specify
-DLLDB_DISABLE_LIBEDIT=1."
It is not clear to me what is meant, I'm guessing this is an option used
when compiling the program.
As far as I can tell the package libedit2 is installed on my computer.

Thank you,
Sierk Rosema
