Hi, I found that a .war file is not seen as an archive in pcmanfm because the list of MIME types handled by xarchiver in libfm contains application/x-war but, in Mageia 6, the MIME type used for .war files is application/x-webarchive. Best regards, Nico.

Testing M6/64, LXDE BEFORE update: libfm-1.2.5-3.1.mga6 lib64fm4-1.2.5-3.1.mga6 lxshortcut-1.2.5-3.1.mga6 I created a nonsense file named test.war, and tried right-clickng it in PCmanFM. Problem: the context menu included (apparently correctly): Gnome archive manager Ark Engrampa Xarchiver all of which foundered, reasonably, on trying to open the file. I shall apply the update & look for a difference. To be sure, logging out/in; hence a separate comment follows.

Testing M6/64, LXDE, continued AFTER update: libfm-1.2.5-3.2.mga6 lib64fm4-1.2.5-3.2.mga6 lxshortcut-1.2.5-3.2.mga6 Once again, in PCmanFM, right-clicking the nonsense file test.war showed: Gnome archive manager Ark Engrampa Xarchiver So I am unsure what this update is supposed to correct. I guess I missed something. Asking for feedback.

Before the update, after the list of programs that can be used to open the archive, you have an entry named "Compress". After the update, that entry is replaced by two entries "Extract to" and "Extract here".

Thank you Nicolas; simple when you know! Note that you have to log out/in to see the change in either direction. I downgraded the 3 pkgs back to 1.2.5-3.1 and found in the context menu just as you said: Open with... Compress Cut Re-upgrading them to 1.2.5-3.2 showed as predicted: Open with... Extract to... Extract here Cut Update good. Advisory done. Validating.

I am UNvalidating this because of an LXDE desktop problem since applying the update. I need to discover whether that problem is due to the update; if not, I will re-validate it.

Hi, Can I help you solve your problem? I use the new packages and I encountered no issue but maybe I missed something. Best regards, Nico.
Thanks Nicolas for your interest. I did in fact revert the update, but was not able to get back to my desktop starting point because part of the problem remains. So I am re-validating the update. As for the desktop problems, I think qa-discuss is a better place to air them; which I will do & hope you see it.
