Title:
  [Upstream] file-roller unable to extract zip archives

Status in File Roller:
  Unknown
Status in “file-roller” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: file-roller

  1) lsb_release -rd
   Description: Ubuntu oneiric (development branch)
   Release: 11.10

  2) apt-cache policy file-roller
  file-roller:
    Installed: 3.1.2-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 3.1.2-0ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 3.1.2-0ubuntu1 0
          500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  3) What is expected to happen via the Terminal:

  cd ~/Desktop && wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-
  roller/+bug/721284/+attachment/1857724/+files/clam.zip && file-roller
  -h clam.zip

  is the archive is extracted quickly and successfully.

  4) What happens instead is a window pops up noting:

  Could not open "clam.zip"
  Archive type not supported.

  This is a regression from Natty as the file was extracted in it with
  no problem.

  WORKAROUND: Extract via ark:

  ark -b clam.zip

  apt-cache policy ark
  ark:
    Installed: 4:4.7.0-0ubuntu2
    Candidate: 4:4.7.0-0ubuntu2
