Bug#611554: Ark no longer allows to "Open with" a suitable application
The fix has been fixed and released upstream as a part of KDE Applications v14.12 on December 17, 2014. Is it realistic to expect that the fix will be backported to wheezy?

It looks like the patch has been applied to the KDE master branch, see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=179066 . Please apply the patch to wheezy (backports?) so the issue can be finally resolved. Thanks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Anyway, I don't think it works in Dolphin, I tried it and Dolphin uses Ark to open "rar" files, for example. And Ark launched from Dolphin has the same problem with "Open with". The patch may not be perfect but the way I see it it's certainly better than not having that functionality at all.

Thanks That functionality is currently available in dolphin, setting Open archives as folder in the Navigation section of the settings window. Also, the patch was reviewed [1] by upstream developers and pointed out a number of "issues". I don't think it's a good idea to apply this patch for Debian, as long as upstream developers don't accept it. On the other hand, please, if you have the time to check the issues that upstream pointed out it would be a great improvement to ark.

Package: ark Version: 4:4.8.4-2 I can confirm that the bug still exists in wheezy. It also appears that a patch has been suggested to Ark/KDE developers by one of the users but KDE developers are not responsive. This bug has been open for five(!) years and it doesn't look like it's going to be fixed any time soon by KDE. Maybe Debian could apply the path to its internal sources without waiting for KDE?

Bug#611554: Ark no longer allows to "Open with" a suitable application
Package: ark Version: 4:4.4.5-1 Ark no longer allows to "Open with" a suitable application. This is a very bad functionality degradation in KDE4. It makes Ark pretty much useless in Squeeze. I know it's an upstream bug ( https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=179066 ) but maybe Debian could do something about it?
