"Dapper. I have a folder called

If I right-click it and choose "create archive", nothing happens."

Patch I think fixes this

The problem seems to be in nautilus/nautilus-fileroller.c . The original code enclosed filenames in double quotes, which is not the correct way to do it. File-roller failed on anything containing double quotes. I fixed it to use g_shell_quote(), which is in glib and whose purpose is exactly this.
