Bug ID: 504421
Summary: Ark's Extract dialog is broken in more ways than one
Classification: Applications
Product: ark
Version First 25.04.1
Reported In:
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: elvis.angelac...@kde.org
Reporter: nemeskey.da...@gmail.com
CC: rthoms...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
With the new Ark interface, the whole extraction process has become a little
confusing. Also, the new Extract dialog (that appears after one presses the
"Extract" button in the "main" view) is broken in more ways that one.
First, Ark doesn't seem to be able to extract into an already existing
directory. If I select one, and press "Extract", it just goes into that
directory instead of extracting the archive there. This is irrespective off
whether "Extraction into subfolder" is selected.
Second, if I then type a new name into the "Name" field, it does extract the
archive. However, the name is completely ignored: if "Extraction into
subfolder" is selected, the archive will be extracted into that subfolder.
Otherwise, the archive will be extracted into the currect directory. In either
case, that name I typed into the "Name" field is disregarded.
Actually, I don't even get why the "Name" field is needed. Why not just have a
button "Extract here"? Or simply bring back the old interface...
