[ptxdist] [PATCH] mc: install additional symbolic links to the target

[Felix Mellmann]

The midnight commander allows to call internal tools by using their
apropriate name. By adding symbolic links these tool are accessible
from the command line. Some users may appreciate using i.e. mcedit
directly without the need to start a midnight commander session.
