Thank you for providing a link to the file. The behavior does not seem to be present in Firefox 3.7. However, I have confirmed this bug on Firefox 3.6.2 on Ubuntu 10.04.
Strangely, the Archive Manager was not found for the tar.gz file you provided, but it was found just fine for other tar.gz files I tried. Also, going to the /tmp/ folder, I was able to open the tar.gz you provided just fine. I am marking this Confirmed and will continue to test this in order to try to find the exact cause of the issue. ** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- Problem opening default Tar-Gz https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/532247 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
