archive manager refuses to extrace tar.bz files

[ajmal_82]

problem is that archive manager is acting stupid its not extracting any file whether tar,tar.bz,whatever format i dont know what should i do as i we have only archive manager installed by default.i run dual boot and winrar is extracting those files easily and archive manager in ubuntu is reporting error like corrupt or missing files in it.i thought it first its real error and have deleted some of downloaded files 36 mb size.please correct or include other archive manager.

Is i possible for you to upload one of those files so I can try on my system?

[ajmal_82 (ajmal-82)]

i attached a theme archive also appearance dialog refuses to install these themes

[PazO (pazoman)]

Just tried to unpack on my system with success. No errors.

I would like to know if its a corruption somewhere else in your system. Can you open up a terminal and try to unpack it with:

tar jxfv 72807-Apotheosis.tar.bz2

Please let me know if further explanation is needed.

oh,as said i would like to test but the real problem is archive manager reporting about errors i thought there was issue with archive manager,but i set my fat partitions with permission like
fstab entries for those drives that were not mounted by default
/dev/sda8 /media/HUMMING vfat umask=700 0 0,with these entries for i got archive manager not extracting files,should i report another bug about extracting file should not require permission.?

[Greg Grossmeier (greg.grossmeier)]

Access to any file, including extracting it, should require the need permissions. To not follow those permissions would both be impossible without using sudo and also unwise.

Unless I misunderstood your situation, this bug should then be closed.
