Thank you for your bug report, it could be a quoting issue yes, does "unzip" on a command line deal with that file correctly? Could you add an example to the bug?

However, on pressing enter/clicking "OK", I then get an error dialog stating: An error occurred while extracting files. > Command Line Output error: must give decryption password with -P option ... on trying again without quitting file-roller, I'm not prompted for a password - it simply shows the same dialog. If I deliberately enter the *wrong* password, then the "Password required" dialog immediately re-opens - so it's not a mis-typed password issue. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 11.10 Release: 11.10 $ apt-cache policy file-roller file-roller: Installed: 3.2.1-0ubuntu1 Candidate: 3.2.1-0ubuntu1 Version table: *** 3.2.1-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.2.0-0ubuntu1 0 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main amd64 Packages To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/885146/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
