Title:
file-roller symlinks support broken
Status in File Roller:
Confirmed
Status in file-roller package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Binary package hint: file-roller
Steps to reproduce:
1) create a directory in a mounted sftp connection
2) copy a jar file to that directory
3) create a symlink in another directory pointing to that jar file.
4a) That symlink will either not work with the error:
zipinfo: cannot find or open /home/dtabrams/.fr-pXYrzr/test.jar,
/home/dtabrams/.fr-pXYrzr/test.jar.zip or
/home/dtabrams/.fr-pXYrzr/test.jar.ZIP.
OR
4b) when the jar that is symlinked is modified, accessing the file via the
symlink/file-roller again will access the unmodified jar (cached somewhere?)
The 4b error really threw me off. 4a happened while I was trying to
reproduce the error.
