Description Alex Hultman 2011-09-09 12:14:20 UTC 
Created attachment 196098 [details]
This is a zip archive containing Swedish file names. It was created using file-roller but cannot be extracted with file-roller.

* file-roller can compress files with Scandinavian file names properly.
(I can open and extract the created archives with WinRAR through Wine)

However, the archives created using file-roller containing Scandinavian file names cannot be extracted with file-roller itself.

* file-roller shows Scandinavian letters as '?', a question mark, when viewing them.
* file-roller fails to extract these files with the error messages "An error occurred while extracting files." and "caution: filename not matched:  En sk\?l med \?rtor.jpg". (The real file name is "En skål med ärtor.jpg"). The extraction fails.

This is only for zip archives. tar.gz works perfectly. I don't know about rar archives but zip archives have this bug. It's not fixed in 3.1.90.

I'm sorry you actually can extract the files but only if you click the "Extract" button straight away. If you select the files and then click "Extract" or if you select the files and drag and drop them where you want to extract them, it fails as mentioned above.

Not fixed in 3.2.1.
