Description Michal Ziabkowski 2009-05-15 19:02:22 UTC

Version:           2.13 (using 4.2.85 (KDE 4.2.85 (KDE 4.3 Beta1)), Gentoo)
Compiler:          i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.29-gentoo-r3

Ark doesn't display non-ascii characters in filenames inside RAR archives properly. It seems they are parsed as ANSI from the looks of it.

I confirmed it is not the archive that's at fault. The same filenames are displayed properly when using "rar l archive.rar". My test case was with Polish national chars, but I guess the situation is the same for any extended, non-ascii charset.

Qt: 4.5.1
KDE: 4.2.85 (KDE 4.2.85 (KDE 4.3 Beta1))

Actually, it seems to have been fixed since in rev 965503. Closing my own bug :)
