Bug#248959: file-roller: FR can't open compressed .EXE files

[A Costa]

Package: file-roller
Version: 2.4.4-1
Severity: wishlist

I download hardware driver archives all the time, but some 
vendors put theirs in self-extracting DOS or Winzip archives.  
It'd be nice if 'fileroller' could work with these.  

Some Linux command line archive utils can.  'zip' can list and 
unpack Winzip .EXEs.  'lha' can do the same with LHARC SFX files.   

A 'convert to regular archive' function would be even better.

Hope this helps...
