Bug Description
Hello,
This installment: Ubuntu Gutsy 7.10 beta. A fresh 32 bits desktop installation.
1) I created a tar.Z package of some files in my tmp folder.
$ tar -cvzf backup1.tar.Z tmp/
2) And want to open that tar.Z package in the Nautilus file manager.
It cannot open the package directly so it suggest to install the KDE's Ark application. What's wrong with GNOME's own file roller?
See the picture: http://
-------
Note: Likewise, this bug has neither been fixed.

GNOME's file-roller app has several opinions about these tar.Z packages: http://
Sometimes it reports an error, sometimes it opens them but the content is just garbage.
But the "tar -xvzf ..." command from on CLI works always right, so why not the file-roller ?

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. I can't reproduce it in Intrepid. Is this still an issue for you? Can you try with latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance.
