Comment # 7 on bug 911286 from IT wrx

Please forgive my ignorance, but is this approach of disabling a feature that
has a bug considered serious the distro-wide policy for opensuse or is this
just the decision taken by you in this situation? 

If the latter, while i can understand the motivation, i would like to request
that you reconsider. 

As an end user i would much rather the distro not remove features to make
decisions for me/protect me from upstream. I would think a message during
install and/or documentation of the issue in the wiki would be enough, and
still allow people to use the software the way it is written, even if buggy.
I've been using mc in Arch Linux for years and either didn't know about this
bug or had forgotten about it, b/c i don't use "skip": probably b/c it deleted
my files one time, and i said to myself "i'll never use that again, whatever
'skip' is supposed to mean/do". I use "abort" when there is a problem and i
generally try to make sure perms are correct, etc before trying transfers. 

As buggy as it might be, i would imagine that ssh shell via mc is a important
feature for many remote LSAs, and was shocked to find this has been stripped in
a distro that advertises itself as a good fit for devs, admins, etc.

thanks.
