Description Dennis Kaarsemaker 2008-03-31 08:10:06 UTC
Please describe the problem:
From https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/155180

Given a zipfile foo.zip, rename it to foo. Then open it with file-roller and add a file. foo.zip now exists again.

Steps to reproduce:
1. echo foo > foo.txt
2. zip foo.zip foo.txt
3. file-roller foo.zip
4. [add file]
5. foo.zip exists with the new contents.

Actual results:
foo.zip is recreated

Expected results:
foohould be updated

Does this happen every time?
Yes

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all old bug reports and feature requests in GNOME Bugzilla which have not seen updates for a long time.

If you still use file-roller and if you still see this bug / want this feature in a currently supported version of GNOME (currently that would be 3.38), then please feel free to report it at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/file-roller/-/issues/

Thank you for creating this report and we are sorry it could not be implemented (volunteer workforce and time is limited).
