This attachment is a file that can be used to reproduce this problem.
测试.zip is compressed on a Windows XP with Simplified Chinese
environment, there are two empty files named 测试1.txt and 测试2.txt in it.
When you decompress them with Ark or File-roller, we won't get correct
file names.
** Summary changed:
- Ark cannot decompress Zip Archives with Chinese file name that compressed on Windows
+ Chinese file names in Zip Archives compressed on Windows cannot be extracted correctly
** Description changed:
Hi,
- I am a user from China, when one of my friend and I are preparing for helping more Chinese user migrate to Ubuntu or Kubuntu, we found Ark doens't work properly as what we want to.

Usually we have many files that were compressed on Windows, with Chinese file names. When I tried to decompress one of them I found Ark cannot get the proper encoding of the file. On Windows, the file names are encoded as CP936 or GBK, but Ark regards them as UTF-8 by default, so we cannot see or get the files with right name but all strange characters. I tried to find why, then I know I have installed both p7zip and unzip on my Ubuntu, and Ark calls p7zip package to decompress .zip archive instead of the package 'unzip'. Then I purged the p7zip package and tried again, and the problem is still there, unsolved.
- Thanks for your time to pay attention to this problem.
