Bug ID: 399806
Summary: "Extract" submenu won't show op on compressed files
without extension
Product: dolphin
Version: 18.08.2
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: acidrums4+st...@gmail.com
CC: elvis.angelac...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Dolphin can group and correctly identify filetypes for compressed files (.zip,
.tar, .7z, .rar...). But for a file that does not have the extension in its
filename, and you right-click it, the "Extract" submenu won't appear - but
still it will offer to open them with Ark.
You have to manually add an extension to that file to be able to get that
submenu via right click. I've noticed this happens on .zip, .tar.gz and .rar
files - maybe on other filetypes happens, too. So my suggestion is that the
conditional to make this submenu appears should be based on whatever Dolphin
uses to identify filetypes (magic numbers and that stuff) instead of file
extensions.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Get a compressed file without extension in its name (rename an existing file
deleting its extension, download a master branch of some project from
GitHub...)
2. Right-click on it.
OBSERVED RESULT
"Extract" submenu does not show up on the listed options.
EXPECTED RESULT
"Extract" submenu should appear for those files, regardless of their extension
on their filename but according to whatever file type Dolphin retrieves for
said files.
