Low priority: Name collision with Midnight Commander #873
Comments
You have a point. Even though user can rename mc binary name, config dir still conflicts. We have two options here:

Commit #874 adds support for custom config path. Thanks Richarson for your contribution. |
@abperiasamy Au contraire, thank you for the quick solution! |
This is my solution: ~ % mv ./mc mcli Problem solved ;) |
you think this is a solution:
This is creating work for everybody - let's fight unemployment. (joke) This is just a work-around. Please provide a unique name from upstream. The current name The midnight commander was here before. If you want a sane solution, then please give it a unique name from upstream and create a shell alias for you. |
Just wanted to point out that Midnight Commander (http://www.midnight-commander.org/) also uses mc as its binary name (which is not that bad because I can rename Minio client's binary) and older versions (e.g. as found on CentOS 5) also use ~/.mc as config directory (which could be a problem but it's mostly messy).
Is there any chance of renaming Minio's client, or have some switch at compile time?
Or maybe permanently pointing it to a different config file?
TIA
Note: I've been using Midnight Commander extensively for 10 years but I'm in no way affiliated with the project.
