[Techtalk] Midnight Commander missing

[Anthony Gorecki]

Before you start playing around with packages, make sure that you don't infact 
have it installed already. Try doing a "locate mc" (after a recent updatedb) 
and see make sure the file isn't in any non-standard bin locations which 
aren't in your path. If you select to install mc via RPM, it will make sure 
you have all the dependencies present or will refuse to install. See if that 
helps narrow your problem.
