Description Nicolas Mailhot 2007-11-25 16:31:41 UTC 
File-roller only show an empty directory inside http://www.greekfontsociety.org/GFS_NEOHELLENIC_TT.zip

There are files in there though.

Comment 1 Andrew Burton 2007-12-04 04:43:54 UTC 
The zipfile contains a single directory GFS_NEOHELLENIC_TT. The permissions of that directory are 555 (i.e. rx for all users, including owner) compared to usual directory permissions of 755 (rx for all users, rwx for owner).

Changing the permissions of the directory to 755, and re-adding it to the zipfile fixes the problem of viewing files within the zipped directory.

Note that unzipping the archives extracts all files/directories, so this appears to be a view-only problem.

This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
