Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 14.10
Package ark (4:4.14.1-0ubuntu1)
Ark: 2.19
Steps to reproduce:
1) Compress a file to the .zip format with the Ark either from the Ark or from
the file manager context menu.
2) Unpack the .zip file with the 'unzip'command
There is an error message (Test.zip)
Archive: Test.zip
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of Test.zip or
Test.zip.zip, and cannot find Test.zip.ZIP, period.
The file command is telling:
file Test.zip
Test.zip: gzip compressed data, last modified: Sun Nov 2 11:54:49 2014, from
Unix
The Ubuntu package ark (4:4.14.1-0ubuntu1) has a patch
'use_libarchive_for_zip_files'. When compiling the Ark without the patch the
Ark is compressing to the .zip format.
Then the file is identified as:
file Test.zip
Test.zip: Zip archive data, at least v2.0 to extract
and the unzip can unpack it:
unzip Test.zip
Archive: Test.zip
inflating: Test.txt
