No. Most changes in the user interface don't annoy *me* at all.

Ok. Joerg Sonnenberger doesn't like new key binding in mc-4.7.
Can this fact be a reason to not import latest mc to pkgsrc
to a *different* location (remember sysutils/mc470)? Of course, no.
You may continue to use mc-4.6 from sysutils/mc. Who cares?

No, it doesn't, but mc-4.6 really sucks and I already explained
why.  The only thing you've really said is that you don't like some
changes incompatible with mc-4.6. If you read my initial
request carefully, you'll find my proposal to import it to a *different*
location thus allowing everyone to choose his/her favourite mc.
