Description Chris Evans 1998-12-24 00:00:34 UTC 
Make a newuser. Log in as new user on the CONSOLE.
Type "mc". mc gives the user a message about making some new
"hotlist" file.

This message is too wide for the screen and is truncated at
the start and end!!

I know this isn't too severe at all, however it looks really
bad when the first thing a user sees from a package is
faulty.

Yes, this appears to be fixed in the latest version.
No need to release an erratum for 5.2.
