Bug#266534: By adding directory to archive using file-roller, hidden files do not get added

[Vaidotas Zemlys]

Package: file-roller
Version: 2.6.2-2
Severity: normal

File-roller does not add hidden files (with the dot as the first character of
the filename) in directory, when whole directory is added.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a directory with some hidden and some regular files.
2. Add this directory using add to archive from nautilus context menu, or by
draging and droping this directory to file roller window.
3. Try browsing the archive, you will not find hidden files.
