Hi Chris, Thanks for your explanations. Hmm, are you sure Debian Sid has libarchive 2.8.5? I'm getting: --- $ aptitude show libarchive12 | grep Version Version: 3.0.4-1 --- And 3.0.4 seems to be the latest stable release of libarchive according to libarchive.github.com. And although libarchive 3.0.4 is supposed to support .7z archives, the following commands do not work for me, the mount point remains empty: --- $ mkdir /tmp/mytestdir/ && \ mkdir /tmp/mytestdirmount && \ echo "foobar" > /tmp/mytestdir/testfile && \ 7z a /tmp/mytestdir.7z /tmp/mytestdir && \ archivemount /tmp/mytestdir.7z /tmp/mytestdirmount && \ mount | grep "archivemount" && \ ls -lah /tmp/mytestdirmount 7-Zip [64] 9.20 Copyright (c) 1999-2010 Igor Pavlov 2010-11-18 p7zip Version 9.20 (locale=en_GB.UTF-8,Utf16=on,HugeFiles=on,2 CPUs) Scanning Creating archive /tmp/mytestdir.7z Compressing mytestdir/testfile Everything is Ok archivemount on /tmp/mytestdirmount type fuse.archivemount (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,user_id=1000,group_id=1000) total 24K drwxr-xr-x 0 linus linus 179 Jan 1 1970 . drwxrwxrwt 105 root root 24K May 30 04:02 .. --- So I'm a little confused now, is this a missing feature in archivemount (as I initially thought) or a bug in archivemount or a bug in libarchive? Or a bug in front instead of inside of my laptop :)? Cheers, Linus > there is no problem if you already have installed libarchive version > >= 0.3.0.
