Description George Vlahavas 2009-05-11 20:55:13 UTC
Can we have support for xz archives in file-roller? XZ is essentially the successor to lzma, here's the homepage:
http://tukaani.org/xz/

XZ compression is now used as the default compression for packages in slackware and zenwalk.
I have created a patch that seems to work fine. I'll attach it in my next post.
