Hi,

I don't think interactive shell is well supported anymore. Is there any chance 
'devshell' can do what you need? In case all you need to do is to add 
following to your local.conf:

INHERIT += "devshell"

Then typing:

$bitbake -cdevshell nano

opens you a new shell where you can build nano interactively with all 
environment variables are set.
