No, directly changing files part of other packages is not allowed by policy.

If you just start mc, you get 6832 ttyp8 S 0:00 | \_ bash /usr/bin/mc 6833 ttyp8 S 0:00 | \_ /usr/bin/mc.real -P 6835 ttyp5 S 0:00 | \_ bash -rcfile .bashrc ^o doesn't change a thing. Starting a program (wether in the for- or background) just adds this programm like in 6832 ttyp8 S 0:00 | \_ bash /usr/bin/mc 6833 ttyp8 S 0:00 | \_ /usr/bin/mc.real -P 6835 ttyp5 S 0:00 | \_ bash -rcfile .bashrc 6844 ttyp5 S 0:01 | \_ wxftp Ciao, Martin
