Someone on the p7zip forums wrote a script that can be used to add support fot 7z to mc. Maybe it could be added as a use flag (since it would also require app-arch/p7zip) http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1118009&forum_id=383043 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
maybe you can post a patch to the ebuild to include the script?
Created attachment 42552 [details, diff] mc-4.6.0-r11.ebuild.patch This is completly untested but it should work. The only problem is that, in order to download the u7z.zip from the forum post I mentioned, a download script is used which makes it impossible to include the URL in the ebuild. Therefore, the u7z.zip should be mirrored on the gentoo mirrors and the "7zip? ( Gentoo Mirror )" line from the patch should be corrected to include the correct URL. The file should probably also be renamed to reflect its version (0.2 in this case). The u7z script also depends on which and gawk but I did not include these in the dependencies since they are already depended on by the system profile.
Created attachment 42553 [details, diff] mc-4.6.0-7zip.patch mc-4.6.0-vfs.patch should probably be re-created since this patch breaks it (I think)
As I said above, these patches are untested (since I can't do that at the moment), but they should work.
i couldn't get this working
Yeah... I finally got a chance to test it and, indeed, the script seems to not work the way it's supposed to... What errors did you get? I'll try emailing the author.
if i try to enter the zip file, it shows the content as ascii
Created attachment 43422 [details, diff] mc-4.6.0-r11.ebuild.patch I remade the patch a little, moving the order of the patches so you don't have ro remake the vfs patch. I get a different error...

until you can post a working patch
I finally had time to update the patch to the latest version of mc available in portage. I have exchanged quite a few emails with the author of u7z and all of the bugs I could find (as well as others) were fixed. It works quite well actually...
Created attachment 56563 [details, diff] mc-4.6.0-r13.ebuild.patch Sorry for taking so long to post an updated and working patch
sorry, i still get only ascii output
I would really like to help solve this problem but I need some information first: - Could you post the output of `ll /usr/share/mc/extfs/` and the version of p7zip that you are using? - Does mc emerge fine with the patches I have supplied? Do the patches apply cleanly? - Did you notice the einfo at the end of the ebuild: "You need to remove ~/.mc/bindings...."? Did you do that? - Could you also attach a sample archive that doesn't work for you (or sent it to me by email)?

Yeah, i removed my .mc directory and the global bindings file has 7z in it.
Created attachment 60830 [details] test.7z i am using p7zip-4.16
I didn't have time to try recompilling mc to see if I have any problems, however, the archive you provided works just fine for me. What is this global bindings file and where is it located? Could you try renaming or temporarily moving it someplace else to see if you still have the same problem? If you do, could you also post a picture of the ascii output you get. I will also ask the author to take a look at this bug... he might suggest something.
i just commited the ebuild i used as mc-4.6.0-r14, please test it, it does not work for me
Does not work here, spits out a lot of garbage on the screen.
i have the same problem, so where is the bug? (you have to enable the 7zip useflag)

(In reply to comment #19) > (you have to enable the 7zip useflag) I generally suck on Fridays but I´m pretty sure I did. ;-)
I'm at work right now so I can't check to see if it works for me. I'll do that in the evening or maybe tomorrow. It's a good thing that I have the ebuild you used. Hopefully, I'll track the problem down.
Created attachment 61004 [details, diff] mc-4.6.0-7zip.patch Sorry about that. I was using a newer patch locally and forgot to update the one from bugzilla. It should work with this patch.
Also, please add the einfo from mc-4.6.0-r13.ebuild.patch back in. It is important and would prevent possible erroneous bug reports in the future.
(In reply to comment #22) > Sorry about that. I was using a newer patch locally and forgot to update the > one from bugzilla. It should work with this patch. Well, maybe it

Did you remove your ~/.mc/bindings file or edited it accordingly. The first patch I posted here didn't work. You were right and I'm sorry about that. However, the second should work. I have tested it using the ebuild Heinrich added to portage and it works just fine. I had been using this patch locally and it also worked in the past.
this patch works for me, commited
Created attachment 61009 [details] mc.ini Try placing this in /usr/share/mc and see if it works.
Created attachment 61011 [details] mc.ext Sorry about that, I uploaded the wrong file :)
Created attachment 61018 [details, diff] mc-4.6.0-7zip.patch Heinrich, could you please update the patch to match this one. Sorry about this but this is the syntax recommended by the author in newer versions and I forgot to update the patch.
i replaced the patch, but i don't see a reason to add the einfo, having a .mc/bindings file as user does not seem to be very common to me
Well, the reason I added that einfo was because I had a ~/.mc/bindings file and the patch didn't work for me because of that. The author of u7z told me to remove the file and then it started working. However, that file was not created by me... somehow it was automatically created. If you say this is not common then OK you don't have to add the einfo, but I didn't know how common or uncommon it was... I thought that everyone has one of those. :)
(In reply to comment #29) > # 7-Zip, Needs to be before manual page definitions Duh! Works now. Thanks for patience. ;-) (In reply to comment #31) > I thought that everyone has one of those. :) Never had any such thing there...
