Bug Description
Midnight commander (mc) can view information about media files if supporting programs are installed. After a fresh installation, they are not available, of course. When a user tries to view the media file (by pressing F3 in mc), "Please install either mplayer or mpv to get information for this file" text is displayed. However, after installation of mpv, the text appears again.
Apparently, the reason is that the mc's viewer uses /usr/lib/
The script in question is available for example from https:/
The solution would be to include the script mpv_identify.sh into a package of mpv and place it into a directory where it could be executed.
