Description Patrizio Bruno 2006-04-02 11:05:48 UTC
Please describe the problem:
Trying to "view" a file directly from file-roller a "file not found" error is
displayed, if the path contains \ (backslashes)

Steps to reproduce:
1. open this file with file-roller:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/download.php?group_id=235&atid=746976&file_id=145385&aid=1257514
2. double-click on a file


Actual results:
"file not found"

Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

Comment 2 Sven Rech 2006-04-08 18:43:20 UTC
This fix makes new problems:

/bin/sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `('
/bin/sh: -c: line 0: `unzip -d /tmp/fr-Vy5Pub -o -P "" /home/sven/lotw/test/test.zip LOTW\\ -\\ Sinnlos\\ in\\ Mittelerde\\ -\\ Part2\\ -\\ V\\ Prerelease\\ \\(DivX\\).avi'
Comment 3 Paolo Bacchilega 2006-04-09 08:29:22 UTC
should be fixed now.
Comment 4 Sven Rech 2006-04-09 12:51:34 UTC
There are also problems with rar files in connection with backslashes:

Make a File with the name "dir\file".
Open Fileroller, make a new rar archive, and add this file.

Now you have a directory "dir" with a file "file" in it in the rar file.
Comment 5 Sven Rech 2006-04-09 12:54:05 UTC
And extracting tar archives, where a file has a space (" ") in it's name, doesn't work, too (I think this also has something to do with backslashes).
