https://www.midnight-commander.org/ticket/1736 - see this one.

I am having the same problems even now - 3 years after #1736 was fixed...

My workaround is to re-compile mc with --without-x

How I reproduce it - select multiline text from anywhere and try to paste
with ctrl-shift-v into mcedit - (does not matter from guake/konsole ).



I dont know how to debug this . So please tell me where in the source tree
to see these things:
- the input string that is in the clipboard before pasting
- the string that goes into mc


Somewhere in the middle the newlines are converted to spaces.
And it is because my linux user has some X11 related setting - cause with
a vanilla test linux user all is fine and no bug occurs.


Any hotughts will be helpful. Thanks.

This probably should be treated as duplicate of #2661 which has working
patches.
