I tried creating a minimal test case, but did not succeed yet. I can
reproduce with the following:

- Get Pyglet development branch: hg clone ssh://hg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/pyglet/pyglet
- In pyglet/media/__init__.py add before "class StaticMemorySource" (line 635):
-- "import pdb"
- In pyglet/media/__init__.py add in def seek() (line 649):
-- "pdb.set_trace()"

Then run the unit tests:
- python -m unittest tests.unit.test_media

Each time pdb is activated enter "n" a few times (max 5). If it does not
crash enter "c" to skip to the next test case and repeat.

Usually it segfaults in the 2nd or 3rd test case. It seems to happen
easier if you do it slowly.

I will still try to get a minimal test case for it.

Title:
  Using Pdb for Python causes a segmentation fault in readline

Status in python2.7 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I am debugging a Python unit test using pdb. In my code I use the
  following:

  import pdb
  ...

      pdb.set_trace()

  This drops me into a Pdb prompt (handled by readline).

  When entering 'n' a few time to step I encounter a segmentation fault.
  Details and backtrace are in attached log file.

  I tried using apport to report this, but apport keeps crashing while
  analysing the issue :-(
