extracting packages with a ./ root directory dont honor "ensure containing directory"

[fbrau]

For example this archive https://github.com/andrewchambers/bupstash/releases/download/v0.11.1/bupstash-v0.11.1-man.tar.gz

./
./bupstash.1
./bupstash-authors.7
./bupstash-diff.1
./bupstash-exec-with-locks.1
./bupstash-gc.1
./bupstash-get.1
...

I would expect this to be extracted to a containing bupstash-v0.11.1-man/ directory, but they are expanded in the same destiny directory instead

Did you select "Ensure a containing directory"?

What version are you using? Which distribution?

Im using 0.5.4.18 on slackware. I selected the "ensure containing directory"

The option "fails" on packages with a "." root directory. Xarchiver assumes "." is already a "containing directory" but it actually maps to the current directory on the extraction, so in the end there is no containing directory...

First of all you have to use xarchiver 0.5.4.19. Without sidebar select "Ensure a containing directory", "All Files", "Without parent path".

It works!! I was so used to the "with full path" option that I forgot to consider the other one. Thanks
