SUMMARY
I cannot open some old arj files in Ark. If I create new arj files they open normally. When started from a terminal, Ark just outputs "ark.part: No entry listed by the plugin". The files open and extract normally if I use the arj program directly: "arj l archive.arj" to list or "arj e archive.arj" to extract. I have uploaded a sample arj file here: https://mega.nz/file/PJFxRZjK#stwPe7y-w2lBieF9V454Ly3em8m96EAc8BQd_771EJw

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the sample file with Ark

OBSERVED RESULT
File does not open. Message in terminal: "ark.part: No entry listed by the plugin"

EXPECTED RESULT
File would open and display its contents.
