Bug ID: 377410
Summary: Option "Open archives as folder" mounts read-only
Product: dolphin
Version: 15.04.3
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: cnnr_dh...@live.com
Target Milestone: ---
I was searching for a way to get the convenient archive mounting found in
nautilus, and wound up making an annoying script with the package
"archivemount" which did the trick. Little did I know, Dolphin has this option
in Preferences > Navigation > "Open archives as folder". Great! (Should be
default IMHO)
Anyway, the automount seems to be read-only for some reason. There is no
technical reason it needs to be read-only - mounting archives as a writable
filesystem works just fine with archivemount - so this decision is rather
arbitrary, which is why I've classed it a bug rather than feature request.
I can think of some plausible social and psychological reasons why mounting
read-only might be a good default, but that doesn't mean full access shouldn't
be possible even as an option.
