Midnight Commander (mc) broken in LE10 (System Tools Addon)

Hey,

i have noticed that mc from the "System Tools" Addon is currently broken on the latest LE10 final.

It sometimes does not start at all or it crashes a little bit later during switching of folders.

Also 7z seems to be broken too.

5 days ago a new version (125) was build for LE10 and LE11

virtual.system-tools / mc is broken

Midnight Commander (part of virtual.system-tools) has not been working for several weeks. It starts, but then it freezes.

The last functional version was 9.80.11.121 (at least according to my tests).

Note: I run LibreELEC on the Allwinner platform, but I think it's the same on RPi4.

the pushing of the updated addons is not automatic yet, so someone needs to do it

currently the addons are still building so maybe tomorrow
