It's important to note that this occurs on Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid (with file-roller 2.23.3-0ubuntu2), not Ubuntu 8.04LTS Hardy.
file-roller can open the file just fine. The problem occurs when extracting. Your shell script opens file-roller for both files successfully, but does not attempt extraction. If I extract (double click) the file in the window containing the .tar.gz file, it correctly extracts the "Hello world" file. If I extract (double click) the file in the window containing the .gz file, it produces the error. -- file-roller cannot decompress non-archive .gz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/248683 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to file-roller in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
