MC deletes the wrong file

Important

This issue was migrated from Trac:

Origin	https://midnight-commander.org/ticket/2736
Reporter	nfl (nfl-mcbugreport@….com)

Based on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mc/+bug/897942:

What version of Midnight Commander is used?
4.8.1

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1, Switch off delete confirmation.
2, Go to a directory with two files: "junk" and "vital".
3, Outside MC, delete "junk".
4, In MC, press F8 on "junk".

What is the expected output?
MC presents some error message that "junk" does not exist.

What do you see instead?
MC deletes "vital".

If you enable delete confirmation then MC asks if you want to delete "vital", but people don't expect such a tricky question.

This seems to be a quite serious bug. Could you guys please backport this patch to the soon-to-be-stable 4.8.1 branch? Thanks a lot!

Of course, patch will be applied to stable branch in any way. This ticket have keyword 'stable candidate'; this mean, before next stable release we will search tickets by this keyword and will apply all patches to stable branch (also, ticket will change state to 'closed' from 'testing').

Thanks for the clarification, I didn't notice there was such a 'stable candidate' keyword in this bugtracker.
