Error when starting Plotman: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'readline'

[LeonBuild]

Hi, thanks for developing this great tool. I'm excited about it.
But after installation I met this error:

(venv) [root@centos8 chia-blockchain]# plotman version Traceback (most recent call last): File "/root/Downloads/chia-blockchain/venv/bin/plotman", line 5, in <module> from plotman.plotman import main File "/root/Downloads/chia-blockchain/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/plotman/plotman.py", line 10, in <module> from plotman import analyzer, archive, configuration, interactive, manager, plot_util, reporting File "/root/Downloads/chia-blockchain/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/plotman/archive.py", line 14, in <module> from plotman import manager, plot_util File "/root/Downloads/chia-blockchain/venv/lib/python3.7/site-packages/plotman/manager.py", line 6, in <module> import readline # For nice CLI ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'readline'

I'm using CentOS Stream release 8 and python 3.7.7
Is there anything I'm doing wrong? How can I fix this?
Thanks a lot!

readline is in the Python stdlib. I don't know my way around CentOS, but I know Debian breaks the stdlib up into multiple system packages. Perhaps CentOS has done this as well? I'll follow up here if I have a chance to dig into that myself.

Was there such a system package to install? I would be interested to know in case this comes up again. Thanks.

Hi, it turns out to be the errors during compiling and installing python 3.7.3 on CentOS8. The install process lost readline package and curses package somehow.
A simple reinstall would solve the problem.
Thanks again for your great work!
