Package: file-roller
Version: 3.14.1-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

in the newest version of file-roller it is impossible to add additional files
to an existing archive, i.e.:
..) select some files/folders in nautilus, create an archive (e.g. tar.gz or
tar.xz, ...) from the context menu (which calls file-roller to do the job)
..) then open the newly created archive with file-roller, click on the "+" on
the top left ("add files")
..) no matter which file you select, the "add" button on the top right is always
greyed out and non-functional

remark: it used to be possible to add files to an archive via drag-and-drop
from nautilus, this too is no longer possible (probably due to the same
problem?)

Cheers,
Daniel
