GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 317460
7zip archive integration
Last modified: 2006-01-17 02:39:45 UTC
7zip archives should get an own icon and also be registered with the mime-type, so the file-roller options show up in the context menu.
Thanks for your bug report! I've filed a bug against the software component providing our MIME descriptions [1]. Jimmac: Maybe you could create an icon for application/x-7z-compressed? If you don't have the time for that, feel free to mark this bug report NOTGNOME. [1] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4643
Not unlike the discussion happening at bug #317102, this again screams for generic icon fallback. Have a generic archive icon and register the new 7zip mimetype for it. And IF somebody feels like doing something specific for 7zip, optionally do that. There's a generic icon in git - gnome-package, if you want to symlink to that in the meantime.
All package archive formats now use the generic package icon in CVS.
