screen-4.1.0-0.23.20120314git3c2946.el7_2.x86_64
tmux-1.8-4.el7.x86_64

mc-4.8.16-8.1.x86_64 works just perfect in a single ssh session and freeze reaction on keyboard when runs under screen/tmux (sometimes it does not react on a single keypress, sometimes with delay up to 3-4 secs, sometimes - without problem)

GNU Midnight Commander 4.8.16
Built with GLib 2.36.3
Using the S-Lang library with terminfo database
With builtin Editor
With subshell support as default
With support for background operations
With mouse support on xterm and Linux console
With internationalization support
With multiple codepages support
Virtual File Systems: cpiofs, tarfs, sfs, extfs, ftpfs, sftpfs, fish, smbfs
Data types: char: 8; int: 32; long: 64; void *: 64; size_t: 64; off_t: 64;

mc-4.8.7-8.el7.x86_64 works under screen/tmux just fine

GNU Midnight Commander 4.8.7
Built with GLib 2.36.3
Using the S-Lang library with terminfo database
With builtin Editor
With subshell support as default
With support for background operations
With mouse support on xterm and Linux console

mc 3:4.8.16-2 under debian 8.3 does not affected too:

GNU Midnight Commander 4.8.16
Built with GLib 2.32.4
Using the S-Lang library with terminfo database
With builtin Editor
With subshell support as default
With support for background operations
With mouse support on xterm and Linux console

Steps to reproduce:

  1. install OEL7 (sure that this problem will exist on CentOS/RHEL as well)
  2. create mc yum repository:
    # cat >/tmp/yum.repos.d/midnight-commander.repo <<EOF
    [mc7]
    name=Midnight Commander - CentOS.7
    baseurl=http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/laurentwandrebeck:/mc/CentOS_7/
    enabled=1
    gpgcheck=0
    EOF
    
  3. update mc:
    # yum install mc screen tmux
    
  4. run mc and check that everything is fine (press arrows, go to menu):
    $ rpm -q mc
    mc-4.8.16-8.1.x86_64
    $ mc
    
  5. exit mc, run it under screen:
    $ screen
    $ mc
    
  6. press arrows and browse the mc's menu to see that something wrong

Looks like the root of problem is same as in #3136.

comment:3 follow-up: ↓ 4 Changed 8 years ago by zaytsev-work

@ctac, if it's #3136, then it should also happen with 4.8.15. Could you please check that this is the case?

Replying to zaytsev-work:

under Debian 8.3 there is no such effect in mc-4.8.15 and 4.8.16
and I don't know, where I can get 4.8.15 for centos/rhel/oel
