[Bug 493244] Re: discrepancy between cmdline and nautilus compress on a test folder
I have found a relevant upstream bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=604247 about having some options when archiving symbolic links. ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #604247 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=604247 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to file-roller in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/493244 Title: discrepancy between cmdline and nautilus compress on a test folder -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 493244] Re: discrepancy between cmdline and nautilus compress on a test folder
Well, I have this problem since... I even don't remember... and that's true - only wine folders (prefixes) are affected. It was/is not very annoying but rather strange. Today I've found some time to investigate this behaviour of nautilus/file-roller and it looks like I've found the source of this problem. I've checked permissions of (sub)folders and files and tested every particular folder if it can be compressed with RightMouseClick - and ONLY SOME OF THEM causes file-roller to stop with permission denied message. Direct cause is, that wine creates links to dosdevices, My documents My movies ... and so on, just like windoze. Usually Z: drive is linked to /root and in $WINEPREFIX/drive_c/users/username/ other critical links are placed. That means if someone wants to compress whole $WINEPREFIX directory, or just drive C: there is high chance to get permissions violation. Solution is to check every link in every folder and change it to safe location or just reove it. Doing so I was able to compress whole WINEPREFIX without error. Conclusion: File-Roller follows links during creating list of files, and can cause permissions violation. Suggested solution: Not only wine folders can contain links - it would be nice to have option like Do not follow links in FileRoller window. -- discrepancy between cmdline and nautilus compress on a test folder https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/493244 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to file-roller in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
