[mc-devel] mc exit to current directory behavior

[Dave Plater]

Hi, openSUSE's recent stable release upgrade from kde plasma5 gui from 
v24.4 to v27.4 has caused mc to exit into the directory it was started 
from instead of into mc's current directory. This is being discussed in:

https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1203617

I originally thought this was a kde bug but apparently gnome has the 
same behaviour. We have come up with a workaround of placing "[ $(type 
-t mc) = "file" ] && . /etc/profile.d/mc.sh || true" in 
/etc/bash.bashrc.local but this is unsuitable for adding to the rpm 
package. Can somebody give me a simple method for a patch or a build 
flag that can override whatever the gui's are doing to mc's environment 
that causes this incorrect behaviour.

lesser window managers like xfce and icewindows manager don't alter mc's 
behaviour.


Thanks
