Description

I am using

GNU Midnight Commander 4.8.26
Built with GLib 2.62.6
Built with S-Lang 2.3.1a 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 support for X11 events
With internationalization support
With multiple codepages support
With ext2fs attributes support
Virtual File Systems:
 cpiofs, tarfs, sfs, extfs, ftpfs, sftpfs, smbfs
Data types:
 char: 8; int: 32; long: 64; void *: 64; size_t: 64; off_t: 64;

Since my update from opensuse leap 15.2 to 15.3, I am no longer able to open zip files as virtual file systems - instead my GUI opens ark, which is not at all what I want.

To be sure that it was not my own "fault", I complete uninstalled mc and also removed all its configurations (which anyway had not been changed during the system upgrade), made a clean fresh install of mc - and still have the same problem.

I obviously would like to have this functionality back!

There are some fixes were made since 4.8.26 release (i.e #4180).

I tried the workaround proposed in #4180.

So does this mean there is no vfs from zip archives until the next release?

Replying to wcr:

I tried the workaround proposed in #4180 but without success

There were two fixes after workaround.

So does this mean there is no vfs from zip archives until the next release?

Current master 4.8.26-214-ga81f1ca19 works fine with zip archives. Right now you have two ways:

  • compile mc from source yourself (from master branch);
  • downgrade mc to previous version.

Otherwise, you have to await release 4.8.27.

Thank you, I found a rpm for 4.8.22 and installed it. It works.
