file-roller invokes unzip with the "-P" option (supplying an
empty password if one has not been given initially), to prevent
it from prompting for a password; it then uses unzip's exit
status to detect that the password is incorrect. But the
native Solaris versions of zip/unzip do not support encryption,
resulting in a usage error. We will fix this in an upcoming
patch release by installing attachandrun scripts to run the
versions of zip/unzip in the sipb locker, which do support
encryption.
Thanks for reporting this.
