Midnight Commander does not have VFS support like for e.g. iso9660.

Having "unsquashfs" from squashfs-tools package in the $PATH environment available, "usqfs" in "extfs.d" directory of MC and this patch:

The parser cuts its teeth on the following line

crw------- root/root             5,  1 2024-09-23 14:34 /dev/console

producing

crw-------   1     root     root       5,   -  -   1 2024-09-23 14:34 /dev/console

which mc cannot parse.
