Description of problem: Fish transfers freeze when user attempts to copy a file that is not readable for him. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mc-4.6.1a-35.fc6 How reproducible: Not tried to. Steps to Reproduce: (I describe my particular case. Might not apply for other modes/ownership) 1. Create a file owned by root with mode 600 2. Try to transfer it as an ordinary unprivileged user Actual results: mc freezes after writing a small portion of bogus data to the target file. Expected results: And user would have been warned. Additional info: Not tried to reproduce. Tell me if you are unable to.
Ping on this. Additionaly, sshfs support in mc seems to need some more testing, it breaks in nearly any nonstandard situation, weird file names (escaping issues), etc., if i remember correctly.
