Bug Description

Binary package hint: file-roller

file-roller error:
CRC failed in the encrypted file /home/....rar. Corrupt file or wrong password.

Before upgrading from ubuntu 10.10 I was asked for the password of the file and then it extracted correctly. I can extract the file with a normal unrar command on the terminal. It seems that there are two different ways of protecting a rar with a password. The problem occurs only if I need a password for seeing the containing files. If I need the password only for extracting there's no problem.

I attached an archive that I can extract with unrar but not with file-roller. If I install the package p7zip-rar file-roller asks for a password. If I additionally install the package rar it's the same problem as without package p7zip-rar.
