I caught same problem, too. At bugs.kde.org, same problem was reported. http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79397 According to following page, KDE team did wrong backporting. http://webcvs.kde.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/kdeutils/ark/archiveformatinfo.cpp?r1=1.7 It looks like we had better use 'KMimeType::findByPath()' instead of 'KMimeType::findByFileContent' at present release. Ad hoc patch follows... Created attachment 99915 [details]
This patch puts back ark to the condition in kdeutils-3.2.1.
Patching this, I could solve the problem.
Sorry for my poor explanation... I'm sleepy...
strange, we don't have kdeutils-3.2.2-3 in FC2test3? Where did you get this? Anyway it's already fixed in 3.2.2-2,which should be avialable in rawhide now. Thanks for your report. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040310 Firefox/0.8.0+ Description of problem: Ark (v2.1.9-same as in Fedora Core1) gives the error "I can't fork a decompressor" when trying to open any archive with the .tar.gz extension. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdeutils-3.2.2-3 (Ark v2.1.9) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Right-click file "anyfilename.tar.gz" 2. Choose "Actions" ---> "extract here" or "extract to ..." Or 1. Open Ark 2. Select any file with .tar.gz extension to open Actual Results: Error windows pops up with the message " I can't fork a decompressor" warning. Expected Results: Archive files should be extracted. Additional info: This same version of Ark(v2.1.9) works fine under kdeutils-3.1.4-4 in Fedora Core1 but the current test 3 release will not extract the files from the archive. I could not find a related bug on the KDE site.
