ARK - error opening zip / rar archives

Mon Oct 12 16:45:38 UTC 2015

Okay, but for average user including self, not sure how to do that? I tried
opening the zip with ARK after ARK was started, and it don't work either.
Didn't see anything in ARK settings etc about zipinfo or unzip? So users
just/will just assume ARK is there prepackaged in Kubuntu and should expect
it to work and open/extract zips etc fine... It worked great in OpenSuse
Tumbleweed, no issues, no errors, etc.
