Bug Description
When listing the content of a directory with ls --color an arc archive isn't recognized as an such and isn't displayed with the appropriate colour. The following terminal output should give an idea:
ubuntu@
sources.list
ubuntu@
ubuntu@
Creating new archive: sources.arc
Adding file: sources.list analyzing, crunched, done. (29%)
ubuntu@
sources.arc sources.list sources.taz
Note that sources.taz would be correctly displayed in red, but not sources .arc which nevertheless is an archive and should also be displayed with the same colour. So the $LS_COLORS environment variable needs to be adjusted accordingly by default (the correct value to add would probably be "01;31", and arc is absent from the output of dircolors -p).
