Description Pau Estalella 2008-05-19 15:42:58 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.0.3)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs

Extract an application binary with executable permissions set (either from a .zip or from a .tar.gz) gets a file without execute permissions.
Comment 1 Harald Hvaal 2008-08-08 12:04:38 UTC 
Does zip files even support the executed permissions? Anyways, this is indeed missing.
Comment 2 Harald Hvaal 2008-11-23 18:32:59 UTC 
Testing with other archivers, I see that zip files do indeed storing 
permissions, but ark does not. It works for tar archives.
Comment 3 Harald Hvaal 2008-11-23 18:35:55 UTC 
Also, libzip, which ark uses, does not support storing permissions of the files.
Comment 4 Harald Hvaal 2009-05-10 06:23:30 UTC 
Libzip is now deprecated
