Details

Description:
File roller in its current state is way stripped down, does not support anything and there is no information mentioned neither on package page, nor in PKGBUILD on what possibilities for expanding its features exist. Installing plane GUI alone makes no sense.

Please examine debian entry for this package(only for purpose of fixing this bug, nothing more),
maybe it would be wise to mention the formats in PKGBUILD, at least as optional dependancy:
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/file-roller


Additional info:
* package version(s): 2.26.3
* config and/or log files etc.: nothing needed


Steps to reproduce:
#pacman -S file-roller
Open any archive(tested on 7z and zip) with it.
Mesgbox "Error opening file"

Click "create" (tested with zip).
Drag any file into empty window.
Mesgbox "Failed to execute child process "unzip" (No such file or directory)"
This task depends upon

adding to optdepends zip,unzip,tar,unrar on whatever should be enough.
