dino99, why should this bug be marked as Invalid? The newer releases (Artful and Beaver-dev) are still (as of today) have the older version (3:4.8.19-1) of Midnight Commander without the patch (upstream release 4.8.20 of 25.11.2017). The newer releases just weren't released in July 2017.
PS I don't know about the plans of the MC packege maintainers at Debian. Is MC going to be updated in Beaver? Is it possible to port just the patch (it's trivial) to the Ubuntu package 3:4.8.19?
