Bug Description
Binary package hint: file-roller
When I tring to add symlinks to folders to my archive File-roller includes that folders to the archive and as far as I can see there is no way to just archive symlinks. And if symlinks are recursive Fileroller makes archives with recursive folders and then complains while unpacking ("Not a folder" many times).
