readline dependency issue

Got this error when installing software on the n900:

# apk add lxdm
ERROR: unsatisfiable constraints:
  readline-7.0.003-r1:
    conflicts: readline-8.0.0-r0

I think this is, because we have readline 7 in aports/temp. It was added during a KDE related MR.

Installing lxdm in a fresh armv7 chroot works for me:

$ pmbootstrap chroot -barmv7 --add=lxdm

@MartijnBraam: can you try to upgrade readline (apk add -u readline) and install lxdm afterwards? Or if that is not possible, do a fresh installation on your N900?

@PureTryOut: do we still need the readline fork?

It was added only to bump the $pkgrel and force some rebuilds (it was causing installation issues). Since it has been upgraded to 8 upstream, I don't think it's needed anymore no.

mentioned in commit 32a6db0c

@MartijnBraam: you mentioned that you re-installed. Feel free to re-open if the problem persists. Our readline fork is removed in 32a6db0c.
