Re: unzipping files
 
Something got a bit corrupt there on that screenshot, but never mind. Are you sure "pinoyWAP_gbawings" is a zip file? It doesn't end in .zip. Can you do a "ls -l" instead of ls and show us the output? ls -l shows a long form of output, i.e. gives more details. You should be able to copy and paste the text from X Terminal into the forum rather than taking a screenshot.

As Thorsten said earlier - you're missing the unzip binary itself (hence the error you're getting is from sh, not from unzip). You need to install unzip first. I don't think it appears in App manager, so you'll need to use apt-get as Thorsten describes here

@gabby - you don't currently have 'unzip' installed.

On the previous page someone directs you to 'apt-get install unzip'.

You can either try that or look in application manager for the "Unzip add-on for the File Manager", which should handle unzipping it without having to use the terminal.

Hi there,

Thanks for the pointer. Which repository would these be found in? I have extras and extras-testing enabled but cannot find either the command-line nor the filemgr extension?

The unzip package is in extras-devel.
