This bug seems to be present on Kubuntu 16.10 also. Attempting to open a rar file gives "No suitable plugin found. Ark does not seem to support this file type."
Ark 16.04.3 dpkg -s shared-mime-info | grep Version Version: 1.7-1 I have installed rar, unrar, p7zip-rar. I can extract files from the command-line but not from Ark. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1614806 Title: This package breaks "ark" rar support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shared-mime-info/+bug/1614806/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
