Arch Linux

[Description:]

Having issues related to extracting certain zip files from the internet. I can't say for certain the exact cause and have not been able to create problem zip files locally on Linux. But using zipdetails, to compare locally created zip files [with the same data, that extract correctly] vs remote ones those that don't: the problem zip files appear to have various extra File Attributes [such as "NTFS FileTimes"].

[Additional info:]
* package version(s): 17.03-1

[Steps to reproduce:]

When using 7z or 7za with the x switch [to extract to a directory], 7z appears to create a directory entry for what should be a file, then throw an error asking to replace said directory with a file. To clarify, assume you have zip file called "foo.zip" containing one item: "readme.txt" and ask 7z to extract to the directory /tmp/1 [i.e. `7z x -o/tmp/1 foo.zip`], 7z will create a new directory called "/tmp/1/readme.txt" then throw an error asking to replace it, answering yes will result in the directory being replaced with the readme.txt file.

Taking the same file above and instead using switch e [to extract to the working directory, i.e `7z e foo.zip`], one of two things will happen [depending on the zip file]: sometimes 7z creates a file named "IBM437.so" with the contents of "readme.txt". Or 7z throws an error asking to "replace the existing file" "./.", then throws an error "ERROR: Can not create file with auto name : ./" when answering yes to "Auto rename all".

unzip or Ark appear to have no issues extracting these files. I believe this issue first appeared in the latest p7zip release.
