Details

Description:
When I press Enter on a .tar.gz or .zip file, then nothing happens (I cannot see the content of the archive). If I delete the mc-ngaba directory in /tmp, an _empty_ mc-ngaba directory is created after pressing Enter. I cannot see anything else, and I cannot debug mc.

Additional info:
mc 4.8.1-1

Steps to reproduce:
This bug always occurs on my machine (the virtual filesystem never works). I tried to remove (rename) the .mc config directory, but it didn't help. However, the bug disappears when I downgrade to 4.8.0-2.
This task depends upon

Sounds somewhat similar to https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/26653
I just tried it here and entering .tar.gz files works for me, both by pressing enter (which takes me to the browsable directory tree using utar://) and with f3 (displays the content list).

Have you tried (re)moving .config/mc ?

Oh, so the config directory is now .config/mc? Sorry, I overlooked that. After (re)moving it, the bug disappears, so I think this bugreport can be closed.

Just for the record, the syntax of mc.ext is changed. That is incompatible with the new version.

In the old file I can see this:
regex/\.t([gp]?z|ar\.g?[zZ])$
Open=%cd %p#utar

In the new file I can see this:
regex/\.t([gp]?z|ar\.g?[zZ])$|\.ipk$
Open=%cd %p/utar://

Maybe you could mention this in the package install script.
