DE: Cinnamon
Midnight Commander v.4.8.20
Steps to reproduce: Clicking the right mouse button on the files in the MC-panel does not mark the files, but simply a context menu Guake. At the same time, everything works correctly in gnome-terminal - files and folders are marked with the right button.

Output when mouse right click in MC-panel:

found tag: -1, item: None
Current link under cursor: None
found tag: -1, item: None
Current link under cursor: None
found tag: -1, item: None
Current link under cursor: None`

Dupe of #1096.

Thank you, very much!

Hello! Today I finally installed a new version of Guake v3.2, and'm checking again mouse in MC-panel. By default, in MC, when you press the right mouse button on a file or folder - they should stand out and be selected-marked (in yellow), to continue with the selected files and folders, it was possible to perform a GROUP operation. But the files and folders are not marked! For some reason, in gnome-terminal it works correct.
Check it out, please!

Yup, looks to me that a left-click event is sent to the app (mc) instead of a right-click one. Also, double right-clicking pops up guake's context menu, this might also be distracting if one wants to use double right-click in some app.

Ok, found the issue

For the double click, it seems like it is a timing issue, not intended... so don't know how to deal with it

Applied the hotfix and .... voila: everything works fine, including double-click and right-click. This is super! Thank you!
