4356	Subshell returns to panels view on key press (any key).	pgpb		"1 How to reproduce
══════════════════

  1. `mc -b': launch MC
  2. `ctrl-o': hide panels (enter subshell)
  3. `ls': list directory contents

  Expected:

  To see the contents of the current directory

  Actual:

  MC returns to the panel view when pressing any key, i.e., it's not
  possible to even finish typing the command `ls'.


2 Homebrew formula info
═══════════════════════

  I installed `mc' using Homebrew, however the bug is present also when building 
MC from sources using the versions given in this ticket:

        $ brew info mc midnight-commander: stable 4.8.27
        (bottled), HEAD Terminal-based visual file manager
        <https://www.midnight-commander.org/>

        From:
        <https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/HEAD/Formula/midnight-commander.rb>

        ==> Dependencies Build: pkg-config ✔ Required: glib ✔,
        libssh2 ✔, openssl@1.1 ✔, s-lang ✔

  Which downloads v4.8.27 via: the following URL:
  <https://www.midnight-commander.org/downloads/mc-4.8.27.tar.xz>

4 `git bisect' results
══════════════════════

  Using `git bisect' I found the following:

  • good version: 4.8.1.7
  • first bad commit found: 109af564bce7e86a0421680ede308be847339861

5 Currently using /good/ version: `4.8.1-stable'
════════════════════════════════════════════════

  I'm currently using MC built from sources using branch:
  `4.8.1-stable', which does not have the bug described in this ticket.

  I will also report this issue to Homebrew, however since the issue
  appears when building MC from sources I believe it also deserves a
  ticket here.
