Hello guys,

  • Availability:

    ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/mc

  • New in this version:
    • Applications get launched with the proper SIGPIPE setting (same
      batch of changes you will see in gnome-libs).
    • Stdin/stderr/stdout are now bound to /dev/null when launching
      applications, this should fix the problem where the X server would
      freeze, since the application would be using stdin from the X
      server launch terminal.
    • Drops on clist should work again (Federico).
    • Should not crash on clicking “Ok” on the properties for desktop
      icons.
    • Customization dialog has been internationalized (Sergey).
    • Editors with gnome-terminal should be launched properly.
    • Mounting user-NFS file systems should work (select
      rescan-devices from the desktop menu).
    • Hopefully the SM problems should be fixed. I need input on
      this, please let me know if it is fixed for you.
    • Various fixes to the properties page from Owen.
    • File copy operations from panel->tree should not crash (this
      was a particular and peculiar case).
    • Quotes < and > when talking to a shell.
    • Less verbose VFS for FTP site directory parsing (fixes another
      reported bug).

Enjoy,
Miguel.
