Midnight Commander mc don't work

Hello,
in my OpenMandriva Lx 4.2 installtion I have installed the Midnight Commander ‘mc’.


$ mc
Your terminal lacks the ability to clear the screen or position the cursor.

What is here wrong?

Calling in a root-Terminal the ‘mc’ works well.

Hello,
AFAIK Midnight Commander is in default ISO packages list.

$ mc

Works here in Lx 4.2.

You have system converted from Lx 4.1 to 4.2 and you are having a lot of problems. Do a fresh install.

Users need to understand that if they do a lot of customizing or installing 3rd party software a distribution upgrade is likely to have problems. Sometimes it is not worth the time and energy to problem solve all this.

Post-edit: Even if a user has data they do not want to lose you can do a shared folder with the host system. Such data should be in a shared folder anyway.

Hello,

No, I will no fresh install!
In LXQt-Menu → Zubehör → MidnightCommander
the ‘mc’ starting in a Terminal well.

What mean the line:

Your terminal lacks the ability to clear the screen or position the cursor.
