Description Thibaut Cousin 2004-08-26 20:59:02 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

I hope I placed that bug report into the proper category, I didn't really if it was a Konqueror or an Ark problem...

When I right-click on a .tar.gz archive, Konqueror offers me the possibility to uncompress it, which is fine.

But when I right-click on a single gzipped file, for example a .ps.gz file, the menu allows me to compress that file into a .ps.gz.tar.gz archive! Moreover, there is no menu entry to gunzip that single file. All in all, it seems the whole compression menu is inappropriate with a single file.

Thanks for your attention!

(akregator is a RSS reader)

Reassigning to ark.. I can see how you got ARKregator mixed up with ark :)
Comment 2 Thibaut Cousin 2004-08-26 22:25:20 UTC
Oops, sorry for the confusion. The category was only called "Konqueror plugins" and it came when I looked for Ark, hence the mistake. Thanks for the reassignment.

It seems to be a particular problem of gzipped postscript (ps.gz) files. 
If you gzip other files it works correctly.
Comment 4 Thibaut Cousin 2004-08-27 17:00:29 UTC
Yes, you're right. Even PDF files don't show the problem. Could it be a bug in the way Konqueror handles the x-gzpostscript MIME type?
Comment 5 Jan Schaefer 2004-08-27 17:14:00 UTC
The x-pzpostscript.desktop has the following entry:

X-KDE-IsAlso=application/x-gzip

Perhaps the X-KDE-IsAlso does not work as expected.

Changing the component to general so we can remove "Konqueror Plugin" from the component list (doesn't make sense in KDE4).
