Description
After upgrading from macOS 10.11 to 10.12 and reinstalling MacPorts with all the ports, I run into the following problem:
When trying a
$ sudo mc Password:
on macOS 10.12.0 (Sierra), mc throws a
common.c: unimplemented subshell type 1 read (subshell_pty...): No such file or directory (2)
Searching for this error, I've stumbled over similar problems/bugs relating mc on FreeBSD:
mc Ticket #3658 (new defect) - Subshell not working with Bourne shell /bin/sh (not bash) and FreeBSD Bug 208391 - misc/mc SUBSHELL not working with /bin/sh
I've never had this problem before on macOS 10.11.x and older, and I guess, something might have changed on 10.12 relating /bin/sh resp. the shell environment. Please fix here on MacPorts with a patch or upstream, so that mc is usable again with subshell on macOS 10.12.x (Sierra).
