Version: 2.6.4 (using 3.5.9, Debian Package 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-4 (lenny/sid)) Compiler: Target: i486-linux-gnu OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.22-3-k7 I just created a new tarball (tgz), and Ark displays 950 kB as resulting size. Actually the compressed file is only 84 kB, I'd expect this information in the status line or at least provided by some file properties menu/dialogue.
Renaming the report -- the information displayed is dependent on the plugin being used. Archive formats such as zip and rar already have this information displayed by Ark, but the same needs to be done in the libarchive plugin as well.
Coming back to this report. Ralf, do you remember if you meant that the _archive_ size should be displayed (in opposition to the compressed size of each archive member)?
Changing the default assignee in the currently open Ark bug reports to me.
