Midnight Commander doesn't show the contents of RPMs correctly
Support knowledgebase (mc_rpm)
Applies to
SuSE Linux: Versions since 7.0
mc: Version 4.5.50
Symptom:
Midnight Commander doesn't display the contents of RPM packages like you are
used to.
Cause:
The way that Midnight Commander displays the contents of RPM packages has
changed in version 4.5.50.
Solution:
When selecting a RPM package, Midnight Commander will first only show
information (under /INFO), some scripts and a file named CONTENTS.cpio. If
you select this, Midnight Commander will show you the remaining contents of
the RPM package.
