Homebrew 3.0.0
I don’t use homebrew (for many of the reasons found in the comments here and more) but this is why I do visit their repo[1] for a “formula” whenever I need something macports or pkgsrc can’t supply me.

Homebrew Python Is Not for You
Homebrew Python recently had a problem with pasting in the REPL, because it uses GNU Readline and Homebrew recently updated that from 8.0 to 8.1. GNU Readline changed the default for bracketed paste mode from off in 8.0 to on in 8.1.
Python does not explicitly set this to what it wants (off), so if you didn't happen to have "set enable-bracketed-paste off" in your ~/.inputrc, pasting got messed up.
This isn't just a Homebrew thing. It also hit Arch Linux, and probably others.
As part of trying to figure out who to file a bug report with, I installed Apple's Python3 and I installed the Mac version of Python3 from python.org. It worked fine in the later two, so I filed the bug with Homebrew [1] (and they figured out that it is really a Python bug and they submitted a pull request upstream to have Python explicitly turn off bracketed paste).
The python.org Python3 was easy to install, and was the same version the Homebrew installed.
This raises a question. The article talks about alternate systems to manage Python installations instead of using Homebrew or using Apple's Python. But why do I want any of them? The python.org install seemed fine. Why not just use that and not have to deal with any third party Python installation managers?
