Version: 2.4.0 (using KDE 4.7.4) OS: Linux I downloaded the latest version of IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate Edition. The distribution is a tar.gz file. Used Krusader to unpack this file. Everything seemed fine, but I had problems starting IDEA. After some investigation, it turned out that two files were missing. I copied these files from a previous installation and it worked as a charm. Next, I reported this as a bug in the Linux distribution to Jetbrains, the issue can be found here: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-81482?projectKey=IDEA I was very surprised when this issue was immediately closed with the statement that these files are indeed present in the archive. So I checked using tar command-line - the files were there! Then I looked inside the archive using Krusader. The files were missing in both the viewer and (sometimes) when extracting the archive using Krusader. I have investigated a bit further, and found when the problem occurs: a) It occurs when opening the archive and manually look inside. b) It occurs when opening the archive and extract by using "copy" from inside the archive to a location outside the archive. c) It DOES NOT occur when using the "extract" function. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Download Linux version of IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate Edition, version 11.0.2 It can be found here: http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download/index.html Downloaded file should be named ideaIU-11.0.2.tar.gz 1. View contents in Krusader - Look inside the archive using Krusader. - Navigate to the "bin" directory. - The files named "idea.properties" and "log.xml" are not shown. 2. Extract by copying from a location inside the archive to a location outside the archive - Look inside the archive using Krusader. - Choose the "bin" directory and copy it to a location outside the archive - Check the contents of the copied "bin" directory. The files named "idea.properties" and "log.xml" are missing. Actual Results: The two files - idea-IU-111.277/bin/idea.properties - idea-IU-111.277/bin/log.xml are not included when viewing/extracting using the method described above. Expected Results: All files should be shown / extracted, regardless of method used.
