file-roller cannot extract single file with special character in file name

[AZ]

Binary package hint: file-roller

From a ZIP-Archive containing a file that contains an special, non-printable character (eg 0x80) in the name this item cannot be extracted. The error message is: "caution: filename not matched: test\?.pdf".
Please find a sample zip attached.
It is still possible to choose "extract all" and then open the to-be-extracted file.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue that you reported is one that should be reproducible with the live environment of the Desktop CD of the development release - Oneiric Ocelot. It would help us greatly if you could test with it so we can work on getting it fixed in the next release of Ubuntu. You can find out more about the development release at http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/ . Thanks again and we appreciate your help.

Hi,

This bug has been for several time in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS... and it hasn't been solved. What happens with it? Should LTS user wait to the next version have it fixed?

Please, if you can't fix it, contact with Paolo Bacchilega (File-Roller's main developer in GNOME Project) to fix it. It is a very annoying bug, and I think it should have been solved in LTS version (it has been reported several times).

Many thanks

Closing due to age (and because the file extracts fine for me in 13.04).

If a similar problem appears in 13.04 please open a new report.
