DetailsDescription: The symlink flag is not initialized to 0. After unzipping a symlink, other files may be wrongly unzipped as symlinks.
Debian patch: https://sources.debian.org/patches/unzip/6.0-21/06-initialize-the-symlink-flag.patch/ Since the last upstream version was released 9 years ago, I believe this patch should be added. Additional info: * tested package version: 6.0-12 Steps to reproduce: 1. Download ex. https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/archive/rpi-4.14.y.zip 2. `unzip rpi-4.14.y.zip` 3. Notice that some files get unzipped as symlinks, with their content as target. ex.: linux-rpi-4.14.y/tools/testing/selftests/timers/rtctest_setdate.c |
This task depends upon

Could another developer fix it? Lukas seems inactive for some time.

Can Jelle take this up? He was the last packager for unzip..
