unzip not installed?
Hello,
<Yes, I am new to Debian>
A strange thing, I installed the 'zip' package:
willy@geldar:~$ dpkg --status zip
Package: zip
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Section: utils
Installed-Size: 153
Maintainer: Santiago Vila <sanvila@ctv.es>
Version: 2.30-1
Replaces: zip-crypt
Depends: libc6
Conflicts: zip-crypt
Description: Archiver for .zip files
This is the Debian GNU/Linux version of InfoZIP's zip program. It produces
files that are fully compatible with the popular PKZIP program; however,
the command line options are not identical. In other words, the end result
is the same, but the methods differ. :-)
So 'zip' works, but strangely enough, unzip doesn't seem to have been
installed. What's going on? Do I need to install another package to
get unzip? Unlike gzip, there doesn't seem to be a command-line
option to cause zip to unzip.
