Bug Description
Probably it's a problem of the File Manager because any "ÇÃ" from Windows don't apper correct.
I use Windows XP Professional and Winrar. In my work I compacted some data and send to myself/backuped in gmail. The name of file was "CURSO DE MEMORIZAÇÃO", but where the "ÇÃ" should be, apper some squares with strange caracteres (like if I try to view a document in any language wich I don't have the correct character sprites in firefox).
If I open the archive, select "CURSO DE MEMORIZA??O.DOC" and click to 'Extract Selected Items' (using WinXP don't remenber the correct words) apper an error message saing a file with that name don't exist. Using the "Extract All " extract perfect.
When using the Open Office 2.0 to open the CURSO DE MEMORIZA??O.DOC or clicking in the file in the File Browser Open Office says that archive with that name doesn't exist.
Renaming the CURSO DE MEMORIZA??O.DOC to CURSO DE MEMORIZACAO.DOC all funcionalit perfecty.
Sorry my bad English, but I gonna visit this post everyday if you need any information more or any misunderstud information.
using Ubuntu 6.10 the normal instalation (no server or low specifies or AMD64 version)
Thanks for your report.
Could you please tell us exactly when the error occurs, when you put the file in the archive w/ winrar? or when you open the .rar file in ubuntu?
Also, could you give the exact steps to reproduce the bug?
