I confirm this happens with me on Ubuntu 8.10. My steps to duplicate this were to create a test.odt file in open office wordproccessor. I then went to nautilus to view the .odt file when I right click the option fot Create Archive is missing, If I right click on the .pdf file right next to it the option for Create Archive... is present.
You can open file-roller and archive it that way or buy uzing the terminal and entering the following: zip testfile.zip test.odt <---- exmaple only subsitute your file name and desired saved zip file name. The .odt file must not be an available/included extension for the Create Archive option to appear Nautilus. ** Changed in: nautilus-actions (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None => nautilus-actions Status: New => Confirmed -- can't zip an odt file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/317162 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
