just upgraded to Sierra 10.12 so uninstalled everything and reinstalled what I actually use.

when installing python36 it reports to install py36-readline if using it by the command line, but I've searched for py36-readline and it doesn't appear to exist...

``` ---> Activating python36 @3.6.0b1_0+universal

To make this the default Python or Python 3 (i.e., the version run by the 'python' or 'python3' commands), run one or both of:

sudo port select --set python python36 sudo port select --set python3 python36

############################################################## # IF YOU ARE USING PYTHON FROM THE TERMINAL, PLEASE INSTALL: # py36-readline # TO AVOID A LIBEDIT / PYTHON INTERACTION ISSUE. # REF: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/48807 ##############################################################

---> Cleaning python36 ```

I know I do that for php. Maybe that's also the case for python. python36 is currently at version 3.6.0b1, which is beta, not stable. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52558#comment:1> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for the Mac operating system
