Good, this can be the case for other projects but not with my time. I am
not sitting here writing 1 week of code only to hear afterwards that the
maintainer isn't interested. If it works for you ok, not for me. I say
it how it is. I spent various days writing some shit only to see them
being rejected afterwards. So asking first makes more sense. If no one
is interested then I can spent my time for other things.

Seriously

Your 4.1.40 is likely unstripped, ...
... Here's what I am getting from ldd:

One time you write mc-4.1.40 and then later you meant 4.6.0. Now what ?
Once you agree which version you meant to show me you can reply on it
again.

Because I explained this point already in the initials of this Thread. I
recommend you read it entirely and not half. It's not difficult and my
english (besides that it's bad) isn't difficult either.

Ok I think we leave it on that.
