No, sorry, maybe you misunderstood here: you’re an example
of “I can live with it”, and yes, except for the “bugs” that
are (possibly deliberate) upstream changes, everything was
eventually fixed. (It’s just that mc is a productivity tool
for me very much and that I use versions from 4.6.1 to what-
ever sid carries, all intermixed, almost every day.)
Nothing to worry about here. I even used this as an example
of why even disagreeing makes me stick to Debian.
Those I mentioned pissing me off were all related to handling,
or, in most cases, not handling m68k-related bugs and other
issues. Although others were accepting of patches or even
positively helpful, so it’s really a mixed bag.
