Linux unzip: "need PK compat. v5.1 (can do v4.6)"

Post by ^rooker »

[PROBLEM]
I tried to unpack a .zip file using XFCE's file roller (aka "Archive Manager"), but got the error message:
"An error occurred while extracting files"
So I tried it in the shell.
There I got a slightly more informative error message:
"need PK compat. v5.1 (can do v4.6)"
OS is Xubuntu 14.04.

[SOLUTION]
Will see what I can do.
Jumping out of an airplane is not a basic instinct. Neither is breathing underwater. But put the two together and you're traveling through space!
