Hi all
One of the reasons that I have switched over to using Debian is that its
display of console utilities such as Midnight Commander works much better
than Red Hat and derivatives from version 8 on. However I have still
found a display problem (a screen refresh failure) with the stable version
of mc that is being currently distributed: 4.6.1-pre3-3. I wrote to the
MC mailing list and was told:

This is because once Debian makes a stable release, the only bugs that
are fixed are security-related and something so grievous as to make
something unusable for many people. For example, if a package won't
install anymore, or something like that. My advice to you is to get the
source package from unstable [0] and then read my package customization
HOWTO [1] and backport the package to Sarge yourself. Let me know if
you find any of this confusing or you need any more help.

I use Sarge. But the 4.6.1 release from source and compile my own to get
undelete with it.
