Bug Description

Binary package hint: file-roller

I get this message:
caution: filename not matched: 4.Kayo Malayo \- Maria Mari\?\?.mp3

The compressed file is zip and sames to was created in windows because when I create a compressed file having a file with a ? character in ubuntu I don't get the error.

Ubuntu 9.10.
Kernel 2.6.31-14-generic
File Roller 2.28.1

To recreate the bug:

1. Download this file: http://disc.kayomalayo.com/Kayo%20Malayo%20-%20Qui%20ens%20va%20parir!!!%20(2009).zip
2. Try to uncompress one of the two files with the ? character.
3. You'll get that error.

It seems the same bug that I reported on GNOME Bugzilla yesterday:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619116

File-roller doesn't extract files with accented characters (like àèéìòù) compressed in a ZIP archive. There isn't any problem with RAR, TAR and BZ2 archives. This doesn't happen when I use unzip to extract these files. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04, GNOME 2.30 and file-roller 2.30.1.1.

The "?" character replaces the accented character with unzip, but on Windows WinRAR doesn't do this and extract correctly the file. I don't know if this is a problem of unzip or file-roller, but at least unzip extracts the file.
