Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.0.1-1
Severity: normal
I've used file-roller as archive manager for many file-types (tar, zip
etc) with firefox 2.x . After upgrade to iceweasel 3.0.1, it fails.
I get a requester with the title "Download Error" and the following
text:
/tmp/nodeinfo_report_iov027-20080903-084529-CEST-12.tar could not be opened,
because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the
association in your preferences.
The selected Action for the "Content Type" tar, and many other types,
is "Use Archive Manager (default)".
If I change the action for tar to point to the application
/usr/bin/file-roller, it works fine for tar-files (but not zip etc.).
How do I select the Archive Manager??? Why isn't file-roller selected
as with firefox 2.x?

I've not tested with 3.5, but with 3.6.4~build2-1 it seems to work!
But I still don't know how to select the Archive Manager...
