[Bug 580961] Re: unzip fails to deal correctly with filename encodings

 

Hi Rolf, I think your first comment "Actually, unicode is mostly not an
issue and dealt with in 6.x. " is not true.. if I zip utf8 filenames
with non-ascii chars (with zip command or file-roller) then I can't
unzip them with file-roller.. because 'unzip -l' lists them wrong.

See my comment on upstream bug
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619116#c4

So I think this bug still applies for UTF-8 files (those with non-ascii
chars)..  the problem here is Info-zip doesn't even have a bug-tracker,
but the file-roller problem could be solved just installing 7-zip
package (again see my upstream comment..).

let me know if I'm wrong in my observations..
