Just an FYI that the current deb for the Linux version of MC fails many package tests when installing with the standard Ubuntu Software Centre. The list below is only partial since it exceeds the length for a post.

The Package is of Bad Quality

The installation of a package which violates the quality standards isn't allowed. This could cause serious problems on your computer. Please contact the person or organization who provided this package file and include the details beneath.

Thanks, those are mostly just owner/group errors since the package isn't put together as root. Not really meaningful in the big scheme of things but it can be changed.
We may or may not change the package naming since the way it is now is our convention.
