Make sure Extras-Devel and Extras-testing are enabled, maybe there are some other dependencies.

I found 7z in the Repo and installed it. Took some time to figure out what "OP" means.

Too much risk to install it with force. :-/

Any alternatives?
Mmhhh, that's weird...

Ok I've just verified that my perfectly working version is the p7zip-full 9.04~dfsg.1-1-m5-1, I've just installed it on a fresh N900 (using "apt-get install p7zip-full" with root superpowers ) and it works .

I can't guarantee anything, but I assume it's pretty safe.

I installed it from the command-line (via apt-get & gainroot) and it works perfectly - I can open zip files now!

If anyone has extras-devel enabled can you check if Xarchiver works now? I added p7zip as a dependency and made the UI usable (with a stylus at least)

As I already wrote: Found it in a different repo. It was the one from you in the OP. It took some time to figure out what "OP" stands for. I'm no native English speaker...
After I added the repo, I found and installed it without any trouble.

Hey MohammadAG, nice job. Have it on my N900 now.
Do you have the full access to manipulate the GUI?
Because it would be much better when the "Anlegen" button is behind "Name".
So the path windows (/file browser) could be bigger.


What do you think?

It's the default GTK file dialog, I suppose I could change it to the hildon file picker, but that's not really a priotrity (and it's limited to MyDocs/MMC).
I can't change the default button layout afaik.

Trying to follow instructions in another forum post...

I get the following error message on this step where you use 7z:

Code:
# 7z x /home/user/MyDocs/maemo-sdk-rootstrap_5.0_10.2010.19-1_armel.tgz -o /floppy
/usr/bin/7z: exec: line 2: /usr/lib/p7zip/7z: Too many levels of symbolic links
I've installed p7zip....as I get the help message when I type '7zr'...

Any suggestions??

Thanks!

and install it again.

i was in the same situation, and it was solved by itself
