           Summary: Wrong PS1 in MC
           Product: openSUSE 10.3
           Version: Beta 3

Apparently the definition of ev variable PS1 (the prompt) is kinda weird.
I is printed incorrectly in MC (midnight commander) - see screenshot.

In resume:
in /etc/bash.bashrc, PS1 is defined as
    PS1="${_t}${_u}:\w${_p} "
    (with all variables defined in some exotic way)
which gives finaly (using 'set' command):
   PS1='$(ppwd \l)\u@\h:\w> '
   PS2='> '
   PS4='+ '

It is printed correcly in bash, but incorrectly in MC.


If I change it directly (in /etc/bash.bashrc) just to:
    PS1="\u@\h:\w> "

It is rendered correcly everywhere.

Will this be fixed in some next release please? Thanks.
