[Bug 1527817] Re: unhelpful error message "Parsing filters is unsupported."

 

I have the issue. The problem is I am unable to extract an archive with
files of a particular format. The problematic formats are TIFF and PDF.
However, one can open the other files inside the archive (without
extraction). My version is 15.10 with all updates.

Title:
  unhelpful error message "Parsing filters is unsupported."

Status in file-roller package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

    1. download http://www.speedlink.com/support/bin/sl-8861-b-cd-content-02-26-10.zip
    2. try to extract the `.iso` file into `/tmp/`

  The error message `Parsing filters is unsupported.` doesn't provide
  any information and doesn't explain if something and what is wrong and
  thus needs to be replaced by  a message which does that.
