RHBA-2006:0628 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
mc bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated mc packages that fix various bugs are now available.
Description
Midnight Commander (mc) is a visual shell, much like a file manager.
This update fixes truncation of some variables to 32 bits when they reach up
to 64-bit precision. It also simplifies compilation style, which does not
require an additional dependency.
The former mc package did not contain a mcview symbolic link, which
prevented a user from using the mc internal viewer without mc.
All users of mc should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve
these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied. Use Red Hat
