Description Krzysztof Setlak 2016-03-05 13:22:46 CET
Description of problem:
Operation on archives (zpis, 7zips, all of them) is a standard element of the context menu (RMB) in all file managers, so I assume lack of this in Nemo is an unintended flas... There should be an option to zip a folder and if an archive is right-clicked, there should be also something like "extract here" or equivalent. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2


How reproducible: Easily on any hardware.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Nemo.
2. Click a folder or an archive with the RMB.
3. Inspect the list of actions.

I don't use nemo and this report is againt a EOL version, it's still valid for mageia 8 or 9

Installed a MGA9 64bit Cinnamon test installation. Opened Nemo. Right clicked on a folder -> Compress (countless archive formats available)
After that right clicked on the compressed archive and -> Extract

So this is fixed.

Resolution: (none) => FIXED
