Hi,

mc won't change into directories that contain a "_" or other "exotic" characters when running in bash-3.2.

upstream is already aware of this bug. I'm posting this here so that Gentoo won't miss the fix when there is one that is accepted upstream.

Cheers

I made a new ebuild containing the patch provided by Andrey Skvortsov upstream.

No ill side-effects, here ... please test it!

Hold it! ... Developer Leonard den Ottolander kindly replied to my entry on `mc's bug page, like: 

Mehmet, instead of using the attached patch that breaks compatibility with bash < 3.2 you might want to use the hack/patch that I posted to the mc-devel list in relation to this report.

That patch is almost identical to this one, but by escaping numbers as well it remains compatible with bash > 2.05b.

***

I dug around, found the mentioned hack, made a new patch with a new ebuild: C'mon fellows, give it a try ;)

I've tested on amd64 and it works at least for the directories with a '_' in the name. I'm using bash 3.2.3(1)-release

Comment 8 Hiel Van Campen 2006-11-13 16:08:04 UTC

I tested on a ~x86 with bash-3.2.3(1)-release and its happy viewing ~/tst_tst/tst_tst .
