I have the same symptoms as walt (except less often, probably because |
| 28 |
I'm typing in bash less often). The echo attribute is on for me. |

I think (but am not certain) the problem started for me when I |
| 31 |
updated bash and readline following this stabilization: |
| 32 |
<https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=548756> |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
In case it matters (and since I am using USE="-*"), here are my flags |
| 35 |
for those two packages. |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
bash: nls readline -afs -bashlogger -examples -mem-scramble -net |
| 38 |
-plugins -vanilla |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
sys-libs/readline: -static-libs ABI_MIPS="-n32 -n64 -o32" |
| 41 |
ABI_PPC="-32 -64" ABI_S390="-32 -64" ABI_X86="64 -32 -x32" |
