Mouse stopped working in MC

[Frank McCormick <beacon videotron ca>]

I am running Debian Sid fully updated. My mouse has stopped
working in MC. Instead I get key codes on the MC command line.
I normally run MC in an xterm.

How do I go about resolving this.

frank@franklin:~$ mc -V

Built with GLib 2.62.4
Using the S-Lang library with terminfo database
With builtin Editor and Aspell support
With subshell support as default
With support for background operations

Virtual File Systems: cpiofs, tarfs, sfs, extfs, ext2undelfs, ftpfs, 
sftpfs, fish
Data types: char: 8; int: 32; long: 64; void *: 64; size_t: 64; off_t: 64;

Appreciate any help
