Bug #13175
Nautilus archive manager 'extract here' menu option fails with .7z files, but Archive manager not.
0%
Description
Reported by user, confirmed by me:
Nautilus context menu option ‘Extract here’, which is the default option and gets also activated when you double click on the file, fails to open
Steps to reproduce:
- Get a .7z password encrypted file [1]
- Move it to Tor Browser folder
- Right-click and select default option ‘Extract here’
- You get an Error message: empty archive.
BUT:
- Get a .7z password encrypted file [1]
- Move it to Tor Browser folder
- Right-click and select ‘Open with other application’
- Select Archive manager
- You get prompted for the password and everything goes well
[1] Attached here, password ‘tete’, created with Archive manager itself (more options, encrypt file list also)

I doubt that’s Tails-specific, it looks like a limitation of the native archives support that was added in Nautilus. Given there’s a workaround, and I bet it affects very few users (wrong?), I’m inclined to say it’s not something we should spend any time on. So please report this upstream (to Debian or to GNOME) after reproducing on pristine + recent Debian or Fedora, and then let’s close this. Or just close it if you prefer.
