tar archive with German umlauts: broken if opened in Krusader, works ok if you
use tar itself
Hi Krusader team! I have been using and loving Krusader for years now. However,
I have noticed a serious bug handling tar archives with German umlauts and
probably other special characters.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Bug appears when opening a tar or tar.xz archive directly in Krusader, if it
contains nested directories with German umlauts. See example file.
2. Note: this tar archive was created on Gnome, using the Archive manager.
Seems not to happen if you use commandline tar to create the same archive.
However, the tar archive itself appears correct, and other utilities handle it
without problems.
OBSERVED RESUlT
If Krusader opens this, the affected directory within the tar appears two times
in the Krusader panel - one correct, the other one looks like what you get on a
system with incorrect language settings (strange characters instead of the
correct ones)
OBSERVED RESULT:
If you use Krusader to copy from this archive or work on it, it will wrongly
re-create the dir structure. Data loss is possible.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
