Bug ID: 435001
Summary: Ark does not preserve user generated xattrs (extended
attributes) when editing/updating/saving
Product: ark
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: elvis.angelac...@kde.org

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Ark does not preserve user generated xattrs (extended attributes) when
editing/updating/saving a file.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new TEST.zip file
--- You can do this by selecting any file in your home directory, right
clicking on it and selecting from the menu: "Compress"->"Here (as ZIP)"
2. Assign some user generated xattrs (such as Tags, Rating, Comment) to the
TEST.zip file
--- You can do this by right clicking on the new TEST.zip file, select
"Properties" from the menu, click the "Details" tab, and click on "Add..." to
select one of the existing tags or to type in a new tag. After the first tag
has been added, you can also click on "Edit..." to add/select extra tags. Click
Ok. Now our TEST.zip file should have user generated xattrs.
3. Edit/update/save the TEST.zip file
--- You can do this by adding another file in the TEST.zip file. Open the
TEST.zip file using Ark. Then select a new file from your home directory and
drag'n'drop it into Ark. The TEST.zip file should now contain *two* compressed
files. Close Ark.
4. After the above action (which triggered an edit/update/save of the
TEST.zip), the user generated xattrs of the TEST.zip have disappeared! <--
This is an undesired behaviour. (bug)
OBSERVED RESULT
Following the above steps, the user generated xattrs of the TEST.zip file
disappear.
EXPECTED RESULT
The user generated xattrs of the TEST.zip should be preserved in all
edit/update/save scenarios.
