[pmg-devel] partially-applied: [PATCH-SERIES pmg-api 0/3] fix #2077: remove dependency on Term::ReadLine

[Stoiko Ivanov]

Thomas applied the pve-common patch - so I went ahead and applied 
1/2:   e214e9bf ("partially fix #2077: pmgconfig: remove dependency on
Term::ReadLine")

and 

2/2:  3f2ccb1f ("partially fix #2077: pmgcm: remove dependency on
Term::ReadLine")

Thanks again for the patches!
