Package: mc
Version: 3:4.8.3-10
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
mc can delete files or execute wierd commands without asking.
How to reproduce:
1. mkdir foo
2. cd foo
3. echo hello world > bar
4. echo something else > other-file
5. mc
6. ctrl+o
7. type "rm -fr bar ", do not press enter
8. ctrl+o, ... hey, how was that file named?
9. pres enter to go to parent directory
10. realize mistake, pres enter again and look at the name of 'other-file'
11. ctrl+o
12. ohh...
I never confirmed the rm command, but file 'bar' is gone...
When mc changes directory in shell, it executes unfinished command. It can
contain anything.
Expected behaviour: Just keep it unchanged and do not change the current
directory, when there is unfinished command.
