Version: 3.4.2 (using KDE KDE 3.4.2) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages OS: Linux Encrypting the contents of a directory containing hidden files ( eg .htaccess ) results in the hidden files not being present after decryption. Compressing (gzip) the directory first, and then encrypting/decrypting, produces no errors. The test directory contained various text files and hidden files as well as sub-directories. Some of these sub-directories also contained hidden ( ".abc" ) files and other sub-directories.
Verified for 3.5.8
This is a misbehaviour/bug of KArchive, the base class of KZip and KTar. It just ignores hidden files.
