Strange problem with MC (Attn: MC maintainer)

Sat Aug 28 00:45:00 GMT 2004

While we have their attention...
$ /bin/sh -c ". /etc/profile"
alias: not found
$ cat /etc/profile.d/mc.sh
alias mc='. /usr/share/mc/bin/mc-wrapper.sh'
Since our /bin/sh is ash, could this be a shell function (or
something else that is ash compatible) instead?
mc()
 . /usr/share/mc/bin/mc-wrapper.sh
I'd like to be able to use /bin/sh as a login shell occasionally without
this error. Thanks.
