Description Christopher Yeleighton 2010-10-09 20:03:06 UTC 
Version:           2.14 (using KDE 4.4.4) 
OS:                Linux

Ark does not allow to create a password-protected archive even if the underlying engine supports it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
  1. 
Tell Ark to create archive.7z.

  2. 
Tell Ark to add the file /usr/share/doc/packages/ark/README with password 'ark'.

Actual Results:  
  2. No way.

Expected Results:  
  2. The Add file dialogue should allow to enter a password.

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.34.7-0.3-desktop
Compiler: gcc

Workaround: { 7z 'a' '-park' 'archive.7z' '/usr/share/doc/packages/ark/README'; }

Changing the default assignee in the currently open Ark bug reports to me.
Comment 2 rockonthemoonfm 2013-05-27 11:24:52 UTC 
yes, please. I assume it is a must-have feature.
4.11 features window should be still opened for few days more ..

Ark should include this patch with the upcoming Applications 15.08 release.

Create password-protected archives with Ark

This feature allows Ark to create a password-protected archive from
scratch.
The 7z and rar plugins support both header encryption and entries-only
encryption, while the zip one supports only the latter.

An encrypted archive can be created through the CreateDialog (within Ark) or
through the AddDialog (from e.g. Dolphin).

Thanks a lot, Elvis!
Is it possible to compile the latest Ark for Kubuntu 14.04 (Trusty)?

In theory it's possible, yes. But you would have to compile all the Framework dependencies first. It's not something I would recommend to non-experienced users.
