Lluís Batlle i Rossell 5c14f92b30 Reverting a wrong name change I once did, when I thought that we would update
all the naming in nixpkgs to match the new build/host cross compilation stdenv.
Nevertheless, we decided not to do the renaming, but I forgot this change in
readline until ludo told me about it.

longDescription = ''
The GNU Readline library provides a set of functions for use by
applications that allow users to edit command lines as they are
typed in. Both Emacs and vi editing modes are available. The
Readline library includes additional functions to maintain a
list of previously-entered command lines, to recall and perhaps
reedit those lines, and perform csh-like history expansion on
previous commands.
The history facilites are also placed into a separate library,
the History library, as part of the build process. The History
library may be used without Readline in applications which
desire its capabilities.
