Could we remove the connection to gnome-bug-#126130? The problem isn't that file-roller misidentifies the file, the problem is that it checks for both compress and uncompress, when Ubuntu only includes uncompress by default.
** Description changed: - I have a tarball named dpm4.tar.Z and file-roller fails to - recognize that it is a compressed file, outputting the - message "Archive type not supported". If I rename the file - as dpm4.tar.gz, it works. - - http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=166603: - http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=166603 + When opening a file with the extension .z file-roller checks for the + presence of the compress and uncompress binaries. A normal Ubuntu + includes uncompress via gzip, but not compress. When file-roller can't + locate compress, it refuses to open the .z file even though it is + capable of uncompressing it. -- file-roller fails to open .Z files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/26662 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
