Package: mc
Version: 3:4.7.0.9-1
Severity: normal


Hello,

if I press <Enter> on a *.deb archive to browse its content in my I get
a red error window saying


	Cannot parse:
	<path_to_.deb> 1      CONTENTS/


I observe this effect at least on two different machines running current
testing.

Any hint how to track down this problem is welcome

      Andreas.
