Bug Description

file-roller 2.25.92-0ubuntu1 an archive manager for GNOME

Feature request for file-roller (nautilus extension) to confirm that the archiving completed successfully. This feature will avoid having an archive process crash silently, ending up with a corrupt archive. The confirmation message can also contain useful information.

I suggest the following confirmation message:

Archive has been created successfully.
Original Size: 100MB
Archived Size: 50MB
% Compressed: 50%

thank you for your bug report, that's an upstream request and should be sent to bugzilla.gnome.org by somebody who think that would be a good think, that would add noise in 99% of the cases though

the change is not something the ubuntu team will work on and since the submitter seems to have no interest to take that to the software writters closing the request

Hi Seb,

I do have interest in reporting it upstream, I just did not see your message from 2009-03-21

Thank you for the reminder.
