[Pkg-mc-devel] Bug#700569: Viewer crashes when viewing broken manpage

[Andreas Tille]

Package: mc
Version: 3:4.8.3-10
Severity: normal

Hi,

the attached manpage contains errors (I'm in the middle of editing and
just wanted to have a quick look) and when you press F3 on it it shows
some problems.  After pressing <ESC> mc will show the manpage (at least
the non-broken part) properly.  However, there is no way (like <ESC> or
<F10> to leave the viewer again - I needed to kill the xterm to get
rid of this view.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
