6. Fixed: Moving the mouse over list control items with text links would not always update the mouse over states nicely.

It works great on the Raspberry Pi running Ubuntu 23.04!

However, one word of warning that I would point out to anyone looking to do so is that it currently won't install as-is on Fedora 38 when using installJRMC without any switches. This is because the libXdmcp dependency by MC requires 1.2 (which is found in Debian Bullseye, Ubuntu, etc.), whereas Fedora 38 ships libXdmcp 1.1. I ended up having to use installJRMC's --compat and --install local switches to strip the minimum versions of dependencies when creating the RPM file needed to install it, then it worked fine after that. Just a heads up for anyone using a distro not based on Debian, and there's a chance this is likely an issue with other distros as well, but I haven't tested it yet.

libXdmcp is an error in the control file, even debian only has 1.1.2-3 - in fact no 1.2 exists, the newest version is 1.1.4

Glad to hear it's a bug, because (at least the amd64 version) fails to install in Ubuntu and Debian and I was just about to post about it.

I'll check that. The current control files are correct so there may be a packaging issue.
