Details

The mc package is currently not compiled with samba support.
According to the INSTALL file samba support does not require additional dependencies, so there's no reason to not compile it with samba support.

`--with-samba'
This option enables remote VFS over the SMB protocol. A stripped
down version of samba distributed with the sources is compiled and
linked with the mc executable. It is recommended that you install
Samba client, since mc uses some files from Samba under certain
conditions. Please visit http://www.samba.org/ to learn more.
This task depends upon

And while you're at it, fix that damn "cannot change into $directory_with_an_underscore" bug.

I don't use mc at all. Roman, would you want to completely replace mc with mc-utf8 as you've suggested a number of times. It will solve all of this crap.

Should be fixed in mc-4.6.1-5 in testing (i686 packages will be available later). Please note that you will also need to update gpm and all packages using it by their version in testing.
