Description of problem: There is a bug in a MC 4.6.1a. In window "Chown Advanced Command" (both in text and graphics) there are problems with symbols. Instead of show [rwx] there is [^@x] and so on... On previous releases there was no such a problem. Bug was reported by me at http://mail.gnome.org/archives/mc-devel/2006-May/msg00069.html But there was an answer http://mail.gnome.org/archives/mc-devel/2006-May/msg00072.html by Leonard den Ottolander <leonard den ottolander nl>: No such problem with a CVS build without the utf8 patch, and indeed recreatable with a Fedora rpm. You should report this bug in Red Hat's bugzilla as it is most likely related to the fore mentioned utf8 patch. === package: mc-4.6.1a-12.FC5.rpm system: Fedora Core 5 (2.6.16-1.2111_FC5) === mc -V: GNU Midnight Commander 4.6.1a Virtual File System: tarfs, extfs, cpiofs, ftpfs, fish, smbfs, undelfs With builtin Editor Using system-installed S-Lang library with terminfo database With subshell support as default With support for background operations With mouse support on xterm With internationalization support With multiple codepages support Data types: char 8 int 32 long 32 void * 32 off_t 64 ecs_char 8 ==== Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mc-4.6.1a-12.FC5.rpm How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.
