Bug Description
Binary package hint: kdeutils
For kdeutils 4:4.1.2-0ubuntu5
<slangasek> apachelogger: why are there no bugs referenced in this kdeutils upload?
<apachelogger> slangasek: I didn't find one, ScottK however complained about gz files not being opened properly, I can explain the problem if you want
<slangasek> apachelogger: explain it in a bug and subscribe ubuntu-release, please
The patch kubuntu_
Result of the change: Ark opens gzipped files properly
Danger: None. Libarchive doesn't process application/x-gzip properly in any case, forcing Ark to get libgz as a result for the backend query is only an improvement.
Importance high because gzipped files are an essential part of Ubuntu/Debian development.
