** Summary changed:

- file-roller will not open 256 AES zip files
+ unzip will not open 256 AES zip files

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: file-roller
  
  Winzip and many other zip programs can now produce zip files that are
- protected by 256 AES encryption.  FIle-roller in ubuntu cannot handle
- these zips.  The files within the zips are shown fine but when you try
- and extract the following error occurs:

  skipping: Test.txt                unsupported compression method 99
  
- I believe this is because "unzip" is used to extract the archive.  This is 
the output from "unzip":
- dbrewer@HCC122J:~/Desktop$ unzip Test.zip

  If "7z" is used it works fine:

  Everything is Ok
  
- So I propose that file-roller uses "7z" instead of "unzip".
- 
  I attach an example of this kind of file.  The password is "monkey" (no
  quotes).
  
- Note peazip also can handle this.  Maybe a replacement for file-roller?
