[pkg-lua-devel] Bug#1034078: lua-readline: regression in how EOF is reported

[Kim Alvefur]

Package: lua-readline
Version: 3.2-1+b1
Severity: important
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

The lua-readline package changed how end-of-file is reported back,
which may cause Ctrl-D to no longer behave as expected in programs that
use lua-readline.

Noticed while testing Prosody on Debian testing, reproducible by
attempting to exit from `prosodyctl shell` by pressing Ctrl-D to send
EOF.

affects prosody

I have reported this to the upstream author via email as I did not find
any public bug tracker.
