Description Steve Fox 2005-08-31 15:45:44 UTC 
Version details: 2.10.0
Distribution/Version: Fedora Core 4

I have a tarball with some images in it and some of the images contain spaces in
the file name. When I double click on the file in the File Roller window, I get
the error "File not found." with a path to "/tmp/fr-....../file\ name.jpg". So
it appears to be trying to escape the spaces, but it's not working correctly. I
can open the temp file manually with eog so I know the file does exist.
Comment 1 Gustavo Noronha (kov) 2005-08-31 16:14:30 UTC 
This has been fixed for file-roller 2.10.1, please upgrade or ask your
distribution to provide a patched package. Here's the relevant changelog entry:

2005-03-14  Paolo Bacchilega  <paobac@cvs.gnome.org>

        [...]

        * src/window.c (window_open_files__extract_done_cb)
        (window_open_files_common): do not escape filenames with
        gnome_vfs_mime_application_launch.

        Fixes bug #170258: file-roller can't open for preview files with a
        white space in filename.
