I would say that any normal user would just /assume/ that these files were not support and revert to Windows for this task... I found this bug after doing just that in Oneiric. I don't think it's reasonable to close it just becuase you can install a different backend and have it work... it may not be a bug in file-roller (other than that it does not advise the user of options), but perhaps in the distribution planning etc.

Clearly closing this bug without addressing it has lead to the problem being present for 2 full cycles of LTS, and AES zip files are now much more common.

Perhaps this can be moved to papercuts?
