Dear readers,
Since this weeks update of Midnight Commander (mc-4.8.19.1.fc25.x86_64.rpm) it's
normal behavior when exiting to the last panelized directory has changed. If you have
started mc from the command line in a terminal or konsole it will now exit to the
directory from which you have started regardless of whatever directory was active in the
last active panel. So far none of the classic remedies have success in restoring the
proper behavior. These are :
1) Putting the line " alias mc='. /usr/libexec/mc/mc-wrapper.sh' " in
.bashrc.
2) Creating an executable exitcwd and putting the line " alias mc='.
~/.config/mc/exitcwd' " in .bashrc.
Etc, etc.
Has anyone experienced the same and perhaps found it's causes and hopefully it's
cures ?
Regards
John
