Bug Description

Binary package hint: file-roller

file-roller cannot read Hebrew file names. in files that were created in Linux (Ubuntu 9.04 64 bit ) nor in Windows (XP 64-bit). instead of normal Hebrew letters, question marks are sown. while trying to extract the files this error is being shown:

caution: filename not matched: \?\?\?\?\?\?/\?\? \?\?\?\?\?\?\?1.pdf

and the file is not being extracted.
