Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mc
Hi I have kubuntu 8.04 and then I using clipboard copy in mcedit with sudo this cause disabling clipboard for normal user. It's because mcedit rewrite with root only permissions folder and files .mc/cedit/cooledit.* and denying access as user. I think this is a problem of mcedit then not using for root user their root folder path in /root/.mc/cedit/* for editing text files.
