I am not able to reproduce this with version 2.28.2-1 of the
‘file-roller’ package.

 Please see the upstream bug report for the attachment (a file which I
 can't add to a tar archive via file roller)

I retrieved that file for testing:

 To reproduce:
 
 1. Open file-roller
 2. Make a new tar archive
 3. Add to the archive a .jar file

Performing the above steps with the latest version, using the example
file retrieved as above, I get no error and the resulting archive
contains the file:

=
$ file-roller
[… perform steps described above …]

$ tar -tf test.tar 
gnome-bug-520146.jar

$ workdir=$(mktemp -t -d)

$ tar -xf test.tar -C ${workdir}

$ cmp ${workdir}/gnome-bug-520146.jar gnome-bug-520146.jar 

$ rm -r ${workdir}

I am closing this report as fixed in the current version. If you find
the same behaviour, please submit repeatable steps to reproduce either
by re-opening this report or filing a new one.

Bug#469359: file-roller fails to add .jar to tar archive

2008-03-04 Thread tim richardson
Package: file-roller
Version: 2.20.3-1
Severity: important

When adding a jar file to a tar archive, file-roller stops adding files
with the error message

tar: This does not look like a tar archive
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

The bug also manifests for tar derivatives such as .tar.gz 

this bug is probably a dup of other bugs, but this report is more 
specific. 
I have reported the bug upstream and will set forwarded

To reproduce:

1. Open file-roller
2. Make a new tar archive
3. Add to the archive a .jar file
