Hi, very weird that I'm the only one seeing this problem. Ok, attached is a simple tar.gz that contains 2 symlinks and a plain file in a folder. Both symlinks should be valid on any system out there as they point to /bin/ls and /bin/cp. When I browse into this file using konqueror (so I first see the testtar dir in it and then the 2 symlinks) and then try to copy via the context menu the text file works. But for the two symlinks I get an error message telling me that the file couldn't be opened, and the file format might not be supported. When the KTar class is used directly I end up with ls+cp plain files having 0 size. Andreas -- You will experience a strong urge to do good; but it will pass.
