This is on FreeBSD ia64 9.0-CURRENT #0 r203484M:
I've zip-3.0 and unzip-6.0 installed from ports.
When I try to add files to an archive with encryption,
I cannot then extract them back:
> ls -al > try
> zip -e try.zip try
Enter password:
Verify password:
adding: try (deflated 42%)
> rm try
> unzip try.zip
Archive: try.zip
extracting: try |
unzip: ZIP decompression failed (-3)
> ls -al try
-rwxr-xr-x 1 mexas wheel 0 9 Mar 10:27 try
>
the extracted file is zero length.
Maybe this is not supposed to work?
Please advise
many thanks
anton
