Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: file-roller

Some zip files (I suppose it also happens with other formats but I
haven't tried yet) that can be downloaded from the Internet may contain
files with the "\" character in their names instead of "/" in order to
indicate that they are placed inside a directory. File-roller does not
recognize this fact and interprets \ as the escape character. The result
is a "caution: filename not matched" error when trying to extract the
archive. A similar error occours with Ark in Kubuntu. The unzip command
line tool instead outputs a warning but manages to extract the archive
properly.

** Affects: file-roller (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
