           Summary: Crash when trying to extract files with "strange"
                    characters from a .zip
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: file-roller

On Ubuntu Hoary, File-Roller 2.10.1 crashes when it tries to extract files from
http://mural.uv.es/salblas/formularios/termo.zip, for example.

The file contained in the .zip seems to be a .doc whose name has the character
"á" (a with accent). If I extract it witk "unzip" (in the console) I obtain a
file with "invalid encoding", where the "á" is replaced by a "?". However, if I
replace the "?" by the "á", the file opens correctly in OpenOffice. I've also
tried to extract it with WipZip (Wine), and it woks perfectly (it extract the
.doc with the correct name without problems).

So, it seems that File-Roller has some problems at extracting files with
"strange" characters like á, é, í...

I'm attaching the backtrace generated by Bug Buddy.
