RAR archive greater than 4 gigs on FAT32 filesystem

[Kevin]

Binary package hint: file-roller

When extracting a file from a RAR archive to a FAT32 fs, if the file is greater than the 4gig file limit, extraction stops with no error messages and file isn't deleted. It appears to be a successful extraction.

I haven't done anything with it. I didn't know what was meant by upstream,
or where to get an email for the people writing it. Sorry. Can you point me
in the right direction?

Kevin.
