Bug Description

Binary package hint: file-roller

Hi

I have a 8GB windows server memory dump compressed with gzip and the file roller
shows the content of the file at 4GB and fails to extract the content.

However, it works from the command line.

Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04

Regards
Nick Morkot
