Package: mc
Version: 3:4.8.33-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch upstream
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
As I’ve mentioned upstream, these issues (which are heavily felt in
daily use as I start and exit mc tons of times) are caused by the
subshell communication code sometimes using a too-high file descriptor
number and then the shell runs “pwd >&10”, which is not supported in
POSIX shells (including mksh/lksh).
I’ve just submitted a corresponding change upstream, but this needs
to be fixed in trixie, too. Please find attached a debdiff for this
(except debian/changelog), apply and get a freeze exception.
(mc will need to be rebuilt for trixie already *anyway* due to
#1108010 once e2fsprogs is fixed, so this’ll save a binNMU)
