I just testet file-roller 2.22.0 in the live environment of Ubuntu 8.04.

This time I used "ubuntu-8.04-beta-desktop-amd64.iso" to reproduce the
bug:

When I open the file "ubuntu-8.04-beta-desktop-amd64.iso" with file-roller and 
open the "/dists" directory, I see one directory "hardy" and two files "stable" 
and "unstable" both with 0 bytes and unknown file type. These are symbolic 
links. These should be shown as symbolic links, but that's not so bad.
The bad thing is, when I extract the "/dists" directory (or the whole 
iso-image) onto my hard drive, no symbolic links are created as well. "stable" 
and "unstable" are created as text/plain files with 0 byte length.
So file-roller has to recognize symbolic links in ISO cd-images and create 
those links, when extracting the image.
