See if you can find something interesting:
$ find ~/.local -name mime*


Well, that got me a file called .local/share/xfce4/helpers/custom-FileManager.desktop that contained the instruction to load /usr/bin/dolphin.
So I changed dolphin to nautilus and voila: I got nautilus.

When I removed the xfce4 directory from .local/share, the most weird thing happened. Restarting MC I entered on the pdf again, and this time got an XFCE request to choose a default filemanager. Remark that I am working from gnome!

Ok, so apparantly MC has a connection to XFCE4 even if it is not running. What does MC want with XFCE configuration? Why does it want to open a filemanager in stead of a pdf reader?

I attached the 2 dialogs in screenprint I got from mc.

Regards, Guus.
