Bug 378045 – app-misc/mc-4.7.5.2: no borders around windows

• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alex Efros 2011-08-07 06:55:20 UTC]

After upgrading app-misc/mc from 4.7.0.3 to 4.7.5.2 there are no more borders around panels and dialog windows (at least in xterm and remote putty+screen session, which uses different fonts so it isn't font issue), plus some other similar issues (for example, F2 menu doesn't highlight current selected menu item).

Reproducible: Always

I forgot to add, I've used 4.7.0.3 with ncurses (i.e. without "slang" USE-flag), but I've tried 4.7.5.2 both with ncurses and slang and this issue exists in both cases.

[Comment 2 Alex Efros 2011-08-07 07:00:29 UTC]

Just tried - same issue exists in text mode console.

Removing ~/.mc/ fixes this issue for me, so probably something is wrong/changed in my configuration.

[Comment 3 Alex Efros 2011-08-07 07:10:02 UTC]

Yeah, I've used ~/.mc/skins/default.ini to modify colors in [filehighlight] section, and after updating this file according to /usr/share/mc/skins/default.ini this issue was resolved.

[Comment 4 Roman 2011-08-07 10:35:07 UTC]

Reopening per comment above.

[Comment 6 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) 2011-08-07 14:27:49 UTC]

Please don't CC maintainers when you cannot assign bugs.

[Comment 7 Alex Alexander (RETIRED) 2011-09-09 07:47:41 UTC]

is this still valid? ncurses version? did you check upstream's bug tracker for similar issues?

make sure your /etc is up-to-date (run etc-update) and try {,re}moving ~/.mc.

thanks.
