 New Comment:

It is imperative that this bug be addressed and fixed.

The epub specification requires that the first file in the zip archive be named 
mimetype and be uncompressed.

Until this bug is fixed, it is thus impossible to create a valid epub file in 
pure php w/o executing system commands (forbidden in many environments).

*maybe* it could be worked around by having a skeleton zip archive with the 
mimetype file in it uncompressed, but really, we need to be able to create a 
fresh zip archive, add that file, with no compression.

This would be quite nice for me too. No compression could be useful for 
creating large archives of multiple files on the fly.

I'm looking to create a zip file with a compression level of 0 on some files.
So this feature is essential for me.

3 years and still no solution to this?

Dude you are holding back an entire industry here (exaggeration, I know).

Can somebody come up with a workaround for this??

Please implement the ability to store files uncompressed in a zip archive.

Without this, it is not possible to create epub documents using php, as the 
standards require that a particular file is always added to the archive 
uncompressed.

"Future versions will let you specify the compression mode and method."

When? :)
