no, I didn't see it anywhere in the list of packages, and its not on the
ISO. I think either someone forgot to include it or, they're ready to
save space and drop it from the distro.
On my F7 machine I ran yum install mc
Not only did I get an mc: mc-4.6.1a-45.20070124cvs.fc7
installed it updated a version of mc already on the machine.
It came from RedHat.
