Hello Balló,

Description:

With xarchiver-gtk2, it is possible to right click a file and choose "Open with", then select an application.

With xarchiver, there is no such menu. No menu appears when right-clicking a file, as opposed to xarchiver-gtk2.

I'm using the Sway window manager (which uses Wayland). (Wayland might be relevant to if the right-click menu appears, but I don't think Sway matters here).

Additional info:

xarchiver 0.5.4.13-1
sway 1.0 (beta)
xarchiver-gtk2 0.5.4.13-1

Steps to reproduce:

* Be in a windowmanager that uses wayland.
* Open a compressed file with xarchiver, right click any file, no context menu appears.


One idea could be to make `xarchiver-gtk2` the default xarchiver package, by renaming it to `xarchiver` instead of the current `xarchiver` package.

`xarchiver-gtk2` works much better than both `file-roller` and `xarchiver` under Sway/Wayland.
This task depends upon

It works for me on Xorg.

Please report this problem to upstream:
