Comment:

 Since there were no other negative comments, I think libedit should
 be added to the OpenSSH instructions, but not the MySQL instructions.

 SSH we've covered above and it looks entirely safe without conflicts
 with readline. MySQL is another story. It has a version of libedit
 in the source tree, but it is the old one that has the conflicts.

 So the code in MySQL must look for readline specific stuff (which
 the old libedit provides). Though not tested, it doesn't appear the
 new libedit would work in MySQL so we should leave the libedit
 dependency out of it.

 That means libedit will be a dependency in two packages (Dash and
 OpenSSH).
