Running Arch.
The specific archive I tried to open can be found here: http://i.imgur.com/0h1dtWz.png, but I cannot open any zip archive I find anywhere. I can make a zip with Dolphin but then I cannot open that in Ark. Even better, I can make a zip with Ark specifically, drag a file into the zip, close Ark and then not open it with Ark. Ark and Unzip package versions:
I've got all optional dependencies for Ark:
Using unzip from Konsole works fine. I can open zip archives in Dolphin, but I'd prefer to open them in a dedicated application like Ark, and GNOME's File Roller sucks. Other archive types work fine (tar.gz). How can I make Ark able to open zip Archives? Edit: Right clicking in Dolphin, then "Extract archive here" gets me a segfault:

You might be affected by a bug in shared-mime-info. Can you start Ark from terminal and post here the debug output?
$ export QT_LOGGING_RULES=ark.*.debug=true $ ark P.S. The link to the archive you gave is actually a picture. |

Wow, Konsole stopped working today, had to use TTY to install a different terminal emulator.
Anyway, here's the result of dragging a zip file onto Ark:
Strangely, I am able to open a different zip, using the Archive -> Open:
Opening that zip from within Dolphin, works as well. Ark starts without crashing and I can browse the archive content, and even extract it. What's even weirder is that now I can open any zip I can find. Then dragging a zip file onto Ark when it's started from a terminal with debug output gives me another crash:
However, I can open said file in Ark from within Dolphin. Edit: so it's fixed, yet I cannot tell why. |

Archlinux recently upgraded shared-mime-info to 1.7, it might be related.
By the way the crash when dropping a zip on empty Ark window is already fixed, will be in the 16.08.2 release. |

I guess that's it then, I just looked at the Pacman log:
Anyway, thanks for taking the time to help me out! |
