Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mc
The problem is that mc can't create the .mc directory in the users home dir and
silently fails to write config and ini files in .mc.
The solution is to create the directory .mc.
Then mc can write it's files.
Recreate this bug:
Move .mc to .mc_org.
start mc and save it's configuration.
No directory or files are written.
mkdir ~/.mc
start mc and save it's configuration.
Files are saved in .mc
System:
Ubuntu 9.10
mc version: 2:4.6.2-2ubuntu1
** Affects: mc (Ubuntu)
