All that warning means is that MacPorts base was not compiled with readline support. How could that affect anything else?
Thank you for the comment. Frankly, I don't know or can't explain that. All I know is that without py27-readline python27 shows similar symptoms, and activating py27-readline solves the problem. To my surprise, re- installation of python27 is not required. (Somehow, a readline module or library is linked magically.) So, I guessed the new version of port switched on or off something and this affected the link with py27-readline. However, you suggest my guess should be unlikely, and I almost agree with you. Which aspect shall I take a look at? After issuing the ticket, I did the following things without any improvement. - switched IM from AquaSKK to kotoeri (Apple's original Japanese IM) - deleted "readline.****" under /usr/local/lib - re-installed port-2.2.0 from .pkg - re-installed python27 by port -f install (I have too many dependent ports) - re-installed py27-readline (uninstalled and re-installed) On Mountain Lion on another machine, I have a similar environment with port-2.1.3, and I can input Japanese at python27 prompt. Do you think it would help if I tried to selfupdate the port? Thanks, -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39878#comment:3> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

This check does not affect any ports, but only the MacPorts code itself. Your problem with AquaSKK must originate somewhere else. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39878#comment:4> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

It may mess up other software as well, and that other software might not check for it. For this reason we do not support the use of MacPorts when you have things installed in /usr/local. Please remove /usr/local and clean or reinstall the affected ports. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39878#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

Thank you for the comment, but the symptoms were the same with Kotoeri, Apple's genuine IM. I "selfupdated" on another Mac to find no problems and I started comparing every ports one by one, and found that the cause is not within port command or ports, but a wrong environmental variable ($LC_ALL) of the shell. (I did not doubt that because both IMs worked fine for the shell itself.) Thank you for your advices, and I hope you haven't wasted so much time. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39878#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X

No worries. Glad you got it working. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/39878#comment:7> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
