[Bug 1203617] In plasma5 midnight commander doesn't exit to current directory anymore
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1203617 https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1203617#c78 --- Comment #78 from Dirk Weber <d_werner@gmx.net> --- (In reply to David Rankin from comment #76)
I can confirm on TW, that mc does not exit to the current directory any longer when sourcing mc-wrapper.sh as the mc startup. Instead, mc reverts back to exiting to the start directory regardless of the current directory. The mc-wrapper.sh script has worked for -- ever. So something broke that setup.
The issue in current Tunbleweed (e.g. 20241006) with mc-4.8.32 is completely different from this bug. The issue in Tumbleweed is related to upstream https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/4575 The wrapper script calls mc with a nonexistent directory, therefore mc can not write the information of the current directory to the file and the function can not get that information to cd to this directory. As a workaround the directory can be created in order to restore the functionality. $ pidof mc 6253 $ ps -Fp 6253 UID PID PPID C SZ RSS PSR STIME TTY TIME CMD user 6253 6049 0 5135 13680 0 08:58 pts/2 00:00:00 /usr/bin/mc -P /tmp/mc-user/mc.pwd.6049 $ ll /tmp/mc-user ls: cannot access '/tmp/mc-user': No such file or directory Workaround: $ mkdir "/tmp/mc-$(whoami)" && chmod 0700 "/tmp/mc-$(whoami)" -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
