Title:
  Symbolic links aren't resolved when creating a zip archive

Status in File Roller:
  Confirmed
Status in file-roller package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: file-roller

  When creating a zip archive, symbolic links aren't being followed, but
  are added as links instead (zip -y ==  store symbolic links as the
  link instead of the referenced file). I don't think that's how it
  should be as a symlink in an archive is practically useless. I suggest
  that file-roller doesn't use zip -y option when creating a zip
  archive.
