sbt console doesn't allow input

I've been trying to use sbt for one of my projects, however I've ran into the following problem - when I try to use sbt console to get the scala's REPL, it just doesn't allow any input. Example session:

[lared@lt foo]$ sbt

[info] Set current project to foo (in build file:/tmp/foo/)

> console

[info] Updating {file:/tmp/foo/}foo...
[info] Resolving org.scala-lang#scala-reflect;2.10.3 ...
[info] Done updating.
[info] Starting scala interpreter...
[info] 
Welcome to Scala version 2.10.3 (OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM, Java 1.8.0_25).
Type in expressions to have them evaluated.
Type :help for more information.

scala>

I can not type anything. It doesn't seem to take much RAM/CPU time. The problem is reproducible in any directory, regardless of if it does have a proper project structure (for example the SBT Hello World tutorial) or not.

I'm using sbt 0.13.1 and the JDK/Scala versions as seen above on Fedora 21.

I could not find a way to get the Fedora 24 installed sbt 0.13.1 console to work either so I downloaded the latest sbt (currently 0.13.12), unzipped into /opt and add the sbt binary to my path before /usr/bin/sbt.

The earlier suggestion to delete ~/.ivy2 did not work for me.

The problem was solved by deleting ~/.ivy2/ and (perhaps unrelated) migration to Oracle Java 1.7 SDK.
