But it should work since xarchiver should add an extension. This is especially annoying in combination with thunar-archive-plugin when you try to compress a folder. Workaround is to add the extension manually. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Create a folder "test" in your home directory. Open Xarchiver, click on "New" and navigate to you home directory. Give the new archive the name "test" and select tar.gz as type. Actual Results: The file dialog opens the "test" directory because the archive extension is not added yet. Expected Results: The archive with the correct name and archive extension is created.
This a GTK bug. I can't add the extension to the filename until the gtk_dialog call returns. There is no control on gtk_dialog_file_chooser().
