[Bug 918107] [NEW] File-Roller should suggest or recommend p7zip-full package for WIM, SWM and other archive formats support and add

 

Public bug reported:

p7zip-full package has the ability to extract Windows Imaging Format (.wim, .swm) files and other archive formats, which are unsupported by other utilities (see const char *sevenz_mime_type from http://git.gnome.org/browse/file-roller/tree/src/fr-command-7z.c file).
File-Roller package should suggest or recommend p7zip-full package for WIM, SWM and other archive formats support.

Also it would be nice if file-roller package description would mention WIM, SWM and CBR support - please add a lines 
* Windows Imaging Format (.wim, .swm)
* ZIP Archived Comic Book (.cbz)
 into Description field of debian/control.in file (rpm packages already has this line, see http://git.gnome.org/browse/file-roller/tree/file-roller.spec.in )
