Title:
  file-roller crashes when adding dangling symlinks to 7z

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

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: file-roller

  To reproduce:

      ln -s does-not-exist symlink
      file-roller -a symlink.7z symlink

  Result: "An error occurred while adding files to the archive.   [...]
  Error: stat error for ./symlink (No such file or directory)"

  This is caused by using -l on the 7z command line.  While that might
  be desirable as a checkbox option, I think it should default off, and
  it definitely shouldn't be hard coded as it is now.
