Title:
  Extracting zip files causes multiple empty folders to appear

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When I extract a zip file (attached) with multiple files in
  subdirectories, the outcome is that multiple empty folders are created,
  and some files are placed in the root directory instead of subfolders.

  There is also a log (also attached) which happens when the 2nd
  screenshot is displayed (extract-finished.png)

  There are a few screenshots attached.

  extract-start.png shows the files it plans to extract
  extract-finish.png shows the finish screen (there were also error logs
  for this step)

  extract-after.png (folder displayed directly after clicking "Continue")
  extract-fisrt-folder.png (first folder in that directory listing, empty
  (same with every folder except the 2nd (not always 2nd in subsequent
  tries :P))
  extract-in-second-folder.png (in the second folder, seems to have the
  files, but all the folders within are empty)
  extract-in-subfolder.png (showing emptyness of the subfolder, all are
  the same)
  extract-in-home-folder.png (more copys of empty folders (won't bother
  with screenshots, and also all the missing files from the subdirectories)
