Description Nate Graham 2017-09-20 02:19:29 UTC

Ark has an arbitrarily set 1 Gb per-file size limit for archives. It's been complained about: https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/70lc7y/kde_ark_multivolume_7zip_can_i_split_with_a/

If a per-file size limit is required for some reason, can we consider raising the cap so that users can choose > 1Gb sizes if they want?
