The mouse isn't working on Eterm terminals.
It worked fine on Woody and stopped working when upgraded to Sarge.

So you should reassign this bug to eterm, or slang, or ncurses, since the
mouse is working with all other terminals.
Yes, I could do it. But:

eterm: Mi own software supports Eterm's mouse and didn't stop working after 
upgrading to Sarge.

slang, ncurses, etc: I don't know what mc is using and I don't know mc 
internals.

Other applications, like aptitude, also use ncurses and the mouse works for 
Eterm.

IMHO this bug should be verified/passed to mc's maintainer and if s/he 
determines the problem is in ncurses/slang/wherever s/he should pass the 
problem with the proper detail. I mean the programer details, not the fuzzy 
description of the user.

Last time I taked a look at mc's source I saw a big mess like a customized 
version of slang using some calls to ncurses ... I had the advantage to work 
even when the description of the terminal was wrong but used some nasty tricks. 
I don't know how the code evolved.
