[Bug 495880] Re: Extracting a file with german "Umlaut" in the filename doesn't work
Hi, sokolov The round-trip issue you mentioned roots from bugs in unzip (from Info- Zip project) . I already tried to reach Info-Zip people a few months ago, for exactly same issue affects my language (Chinese). http://www.info-zip.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=403 So if you use File Roller, please install p7zip so that File Roller can use p7zip as its backend and there won't be round-trip issue any more. If you works in command line, you may consider switching to other tools. zip/unzip seems to provide some unique and useful features, though. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495880 Title: Extracting a file with german "Umlaut" in the filename doesn't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/495880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Ma said: > I would recommend 7Z archvie to do cross-platform archive exchange since >it seems to support Unicode-based filename from day one. I didn't even DO a cross-platform exchange. I ZIPed it on one Ubuntu machine and tried to unzip it on another. No luck. Now I can't even change the names of the files in the ZIP-archive. So, just because they have a special character in the file name, the files seem to be stuck in the archive. Can't get them out.

[Bug 495880] Re: Extracting a file with german "Umlaut" in the filename doesn't work
As I tested the file in comment 3 on Ubuntu 12.04, this file should have encoding CP437. $ unar -e cp437 Prueba\ con\ acentos\ y\ espacios.zip #Works perfectly (You can install "unar" by "sudo apt-get install unar") The result of unzip is a bit strange as it ask for password for one file, is this correct? Anyway, the big picture is that: * ZIP filename encoding is tricky * unzip has broken UTF-8 filename support and limited support of encoding conversion after a patch. * File Roller is just a frontend of tools like unzip, if you install p7zip it will invoke p7zip instead, which can result in working UTF-8 ZIP filename support. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495880 Title: Extracting a file with german "Umlaut" in the filename doesn't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/495880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 495880] Re: Extracting a file with german "Umlaut" in the filename doesn't work
Hey guys :) It is worth knowing that ZIP archives can come with different encodings for file names. The old standard encoding for ZIP is CP437 [1]. Since CP437 only covers the need of certain regions of the world, people on Windows began to use whatever local encoding available, for example, ZIP archives created in Simplified Chinese version of Windows uses CP936 [2]. In 2007, optional UTF-8 support is added to ZIP standard [3]. Unforunately, unzip pre-installed on Linux/Mac OS X and built-in ZIP support of MS Windows don't support the new standard well. I know some people want unzip be fixed but the unzip upstream seems inactive. And unzip is a program supporting so many platforms (including VMS!), so it may be a bit hard to hack. I would recommend 7Z archvie to do cross-platform archive exchange since it seems to support Unicode-based filename from day one. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_437 2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_936 3. http://www.pkware.com/documents/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495880 Title: Extracting a file with german "Umlaut" in the filename doesn't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/495880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I was able to solve that bug for rar-files by downloading a new version of WinRAR, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/632737 but that makes me think that maybe the problem isn't directly in file- roller. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/495880 Title: Extracting a file with german "Umlaut" in the filename doesn't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/495880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 495880] Re: Extracting a file with german "Umlaut" in the filename doesn't work
Can somebody explain why the status in this bug is 'invalid'? On my 10.10 system (file-roller 2.32.0-0ubuntu1) it's still not working. I also see that the importance of this bug is 'low', but for some languages it's very critical, eg. German (like already mentioned) and Dutch.

I fully agree with Kovacs: this bugs makes the Ubuntu environment relatively useless for a non english user.

Dear Developers, I am very strongly convinced that this bug is a highly critical one. I cannot unzip most .zip files in Ubuntu in the Gnome Desktop Environment due to this bug. I can work around this problem because I can use the command line version (unzip), but most users cannot.
