And I looked now in the code, tried to fix the broken compression support. But it's quite hopeless (more than 1/2 hour work). I think they have extended code more and more without touching the supported_zipped parts. For example, the how_to_view builds a viewer_replacement command that contains code that must be executed by a shell. However, try_viewing the quotes the whole command so that the shell cannot execute the code and the viewer gets the whole "filename ; rm filename ; " code. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
