Bug ID: 510738
Summary: Attempting to compress or extract zip archives using
the 'extract' and 'compress' context menus in dolphin
not working due to 'plugins not being detected'
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version First 25.08.1
Reported In:
Platform: openSUSE
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general

Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 185878
--> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=185878&action=edit
a collection of screenshots of the error messages that occur when using the
context menu options alongside a list of the plugins that are all enabled on
ark
SUMMARY
When I try to extract a zip file in dolphin using the 'extract' section of the
right click context menu, I get an error saying 'Failed to load a suitable
plugin. Make sure any executables needed to handle the archive type are
installed.' A similar issue happens when attempting to compress a file/folder
using the 'compress' section of the right click context menu. Extracting and
compressing files directly in Ark still works fine.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right click on zip file and select 'extract', alternatively right click on
folder/file and select 'compress'
2. Make sure to use the dolphin context menus not the ones related to Ark
OBSERVED RESULT
Extraction and compression fails when using the dolphin context menus forcing
user to use the ark program directly
EXPECTED RESULT
Files should compress and extract normally when using the built in dolphin
context menus.
