Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: file-roller
Version: GNOME file-roller 2.22.3
Steps to reproduce:
* Right click on a folder which contains the '+' character in the name
* Select "Create Archive"
* Change the archive type to ".tar"
* Click "Create"
* Popup window appears stating "An error occurred while adding files to the
archive"
* The "Command line output" button displays the following information:
tar: a+/B: Cannot stat: No such file or directory
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Additional comments:
* This only happens with tar (ie. ".tar", ".tar.gz", ".tar.bzip", etc.) archives
* Compressing the folder from the command line using 'tar' does not generate
any errors
* The contents of the folder were added to the archive (for the few cases that
I checked where I used "diff" to compare the files)
* Does not happen when compressing a file containing a '+' character (ie. the
file "+.txt" is tarred)
* Does not happen when the base folder contains no '+' character but a
subfolder contains the '+' character (ie. the folder "dir" is tarred and it
contains the subfolder "a+")
