[Bug 2062535] Re: zip fails when filenames contain unicode characters

[Sam Darwin]

There is a stackoverflow post and a Bug Bot comment from this launchpad
thread saying 3.0-14 contains the solution.

However, the problem continues on 3.0-14.

wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/740831076/zip_3.0-14_amd64.deb &&
sudo dpkg -i zip_3.0-14_amd64.deb && rm zip_3.0-14_amd64.deb

*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated
zip error: Interrupted (aborting)

It conceivable that launchpadlibrarian.net has the wrong file. Or else a
fix is still needed.
