Have same issue on PI, think its related to this pull:
#16135
If you set config_use_interactive_mode = false in BUILD.gn chip-tool builds, but not sure of the consequences.

Or you can install readline lib:
apt-get install libreadline-dev

Have same issue on PI, think its related to this pull: #16135 If you set config_use_interactive_mode = false in BUILD.gn chip-tool builds, but not sure of the consequences.

The only consequence should be that chip-tool interactive start will not work anymore

Or you can install readline lib: apt-get install libreadline-dev

+1.

Still facing the same issue but able to build only using above workaround.

Commit Used : 41a431d

Workaround used to build : sudo apt-get install libreadline-dev

It sounds like we need to add the bit about libreadline-dev to our "how to set up a build environment" documentation? @vivien-apple
