Furthermore, if you  delete a symlink pointing to a directory from the
archive, every file in the linked directory OUTSIDE the archive gets
deleted!

Title:
  File-roller can't just archive symlinks to folders

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

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: file-roller

  When I tring to add symlinks to folders to my archive File-roller
  includes that folders to the archive and as far as I can see there is
  no way to just archive symlinks. And if symlinks are recursive
  Fileroller makes archives with recursive folders and then complains
  while unpacking ("Not a folder" many times).
