[Bug 1815480] Re: “Extract Here” only creates empty files (0 bytes) for .zip files created by ownCloud

[Sebastien Bacher]

Ok, in fact I can confirm on cosmic and updating libarchive to the
current disco version fixes it,
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libarchive/3.3.3-4/+build/16358983/+files/libarchive13_3.3.3-4_amd64.deb
so it's fixed in the current Ubuntu serie. Could be a bug to SRU fix if
someone was wanting to find the corresponding libarchive commit

** Package changed: nautilus (Ubuntu) => libarchive (Ubuntu)

** Changed in: libarchive (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Fix Released

Title:
  “Extract Here” only creates empty files (0 bytes) for .zip files
  created by ownCloud

Status in libarchive package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  For any .zip archive generated by the ownCloud software, it seems that
  extracting the files using Nautilus results in correctly-named
  directories/files to be created, but all files are actually empty (0
  bytes). The archive can be extracted without issues using file-roller,
  unzip or 7z:

  $ unzip -t test.zip
  Archive:  test.zip
      testing: test/                    OK
      testing: test/f1.txt              OK
      testing: test/f2.txt              OK
      testing: test/f3.txt              OK
  No errors detected in compressed data of test.zip.
  $ unzip test
  Archive:  test.zip
     creating: test/
   extracting: test/f1.txt             
   extracting: test/f2.txt             
   extracting: test/f3.txt             
  $ 7z x test.zip

  7-Zip [64] 16.02 : Copyright (c) 1999-2016 Igor Pavlov : 2016-05-21
  p7zip Version 16.02 (locale=en_US.UTF-8,Utf16=on,HugeFiles=on,64 bits,4 CPUs Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-5200U CPU @ 2.20GHz (306D4),ASM,AES-NI)

  Scanning the drive for archives:
  1 file, 8656 bytes (9 KiB)

  Extracting archive: test.zip
  --
  Path = test.zip
  Type = zip
  Physical Size = 8656
  64-bit = +

  Everything is Ok

  Folders: 1
  Files: 3
  Size:       7850
  Compressed: 8656

  
  Expected behavior: Download the attached file “test.zip”, right-click the file in Nautilus and choose “Extract Here”. A directory “test” containing three non-empty files “f1.txt”, “f2.txt” and “f3.txt” should be created.

  Actual behavior: All three files are empty (0 bytes).

  Nautilus version: 1:3.26.4-0ubuntu7.1 (cosmic)
