Package: cabextract Version: 1.1-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch
Hello Eric, To further our previous email exchange... Cabextract "Enhances: konqueror" with the addition of a servicemenu file: /usr/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/cabextract.desktop --- [Desktop Entry] ServiceTypes=application/x-mscabinet,application/x-msdos-program Actions=list;extract; [Desktop Action list] Name=List Contents Icon=cab_view Exec=konsole --vt_sz 80x25 -T CabExtract --noclose --nomenubar --notabbar -e cabextract -l "%F" [Desktop Action extract] Name=Extract Here Icon=cab_extract Exec=cabextract -d "%d" "%F" --- and it looks better with a couple of icons (attached): /usr/share/icons/cab_extract.png /usr/share/icons/cab_view.png Notes: - the required mimetypes are either part of the kdelibs-data package or have been requested of it, see: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=374939 - I have elected to swipe a couple of Ark's icons (GPL v2 or later), rename, and place where KDE can find and use them. Ark does not use these icons in Konqueror's context menu; hopefully they will provide a familiar look without confusion with Ark's Actions. Alternatives include what can be made of the facts the icons originally come from: src/kdeutils-3.5.3/ark/pics/cr22-action-ark_extract.png src/kdeutils-3.5.3/ark/pics/cr22-action-ark_view.png and are currently installed into: /usr/share/apps/ark/icons/crystalsvg/22x22/actions/ark_extract.png /usr/share/apps/ark/icons/crystalsvg/22x22/actions/ark_view.png ! kdeutils is 21M, ark is ~800k with a pile of dependencies and paths which look like they will change with KDE's default iconset, if they were much smaller or less complex I would suggest syncing with Ark's icons automatically at build time. - It is very unlikely that even a minimal KDE installation would exist without the bits of KDE these Actions depend on as both Konqueror and Konsole are required by kdebase. Finally, here is a blurb suggestion for standalone use or incorporation into the existing README.Debian... if deemed necessary for something this simple: /usr/share/doc/cabextract/README.KDE --- Cabextract-KDE Integration -------------------------- KDE support has been added to the cabextract package by Debian. Currently using cabextract-1.1 and KDE-3.5.3. Cabextract is accessible in KDE via Konqueror's context menu, where *.cab and *.exe files will have entries in the Actions submenu for viewing and extracting the archive(s). Cabinet contents are listed in a minimal, non-interactive Konsole window. Use Konsole's menu (RMB or LMB on the background, for RH and LH mouse setups respectively) to expand the session if necessary. Extractions are made to the same directory the selected *.cab or *.exe file resides in.
