Perhaps you can contact upstream, sierkb, and report back if there is something new happening.
Done. See [https://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/3658#comment:5 mc ticket 3658: Subshell not working with Bourne shell /bin/sh (not bash), comment 5] and first reaction in [https://www.midnight- commander.org/ticket/3658#comment:6 comment 6].
Alternatively I could try adapt the patch for MacPorts and attach it to this ticket so that you can test it locally on your system.
OK. Yes, please.
Once your Sierra gets an update
Apple has released 10.12.1 update yesterday, I've installed it: {{{ $ sw_vers ProductName: Mac OS X ProductVersion: 10.12.1 BuildVersion: 16B2555 }}}
you can check again with the unpatched version of mc in order to verify what I am seeing here on my Beta.
OK… Result: {{{ $ sudo mc common.c: unimplemented subshell type 1 read (subshell_pty...): No such file or directory (2) }}} Same error as before. I have no clue, why your 10.12.1 beta seems to work at that point, but not the stable 10.12.1 release on my installation. And no clue, why I've had no problem at the very same point with 10.11.x and lower but since 10.12.x. What has changed in 10.12.x concerning shell/subshell that effects this? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/52511#comment:7> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
