Package: mc Version: 1:4.6.1-1 Severity: normal When a zip file contains a file with the same path and name more than once, mc doesn't display all the information.
For example the bribblebox from bribble.com (available from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/bribble/bribble-1.5.35.tar.bz2?download) contains a Java Archive File (jar) which is in fact a zipfile with a specific structure (The jarfile is bribble-1.5.35/server/bribble-1_5_35.jar). This archive contains the file META-INF/MANIFEST.MF twice. (Of course this is wrong and the jar-file can be considered broken). These two MANIFEST.MF files have different content, so they can be distinguished. When opening this file in mc, there are two META-INF directories, each of which contains two MANIFEST.MF files. When viewing these MANIFEST.MF files (via F3), all four show the content of the same one. It would be of course better, if mc would display only one META-INF directory with two MANIFEST.MF files. And viewing them should of course display the correct contents, not the same content for both. I hope I made the problem clear. It can be easily reproduced by downloading the above mentioned tar.bz2, unpacking it and viewing the jar-file in mc. To view the actual contents, the unzip tool can be used, for example 'unzip -l bribble-1.5.35/server/bribble-1_5_35.jar' Regards Marco -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.12-1-k7 Locale: LANG=POSIX, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages mc depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libglib2.0-0 2.8.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgpmg1 1.19.6-21 General Purpose Mouse - shared lib ii libslang2 2.0.5-1 The S-Lang programming library - r mc recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- ------------------------------------------------------- SOURCEPARK mbH Gesellschaft für Softwareentwicklung Marco Herrn Helmholtzstr. 2 - 9, Gebäude 6 (M) 10587 Berlin Tel.: +49 (0) 30 / 39 80 68 30 Fax: +49 (0) 30 / 39 80 68 39 e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: www.sourcepark.de ------------------------------------------------------ Diese Email kann vertrauliche und/oder rechtlich geschützte Informationen enthalten.
