           Summary: konqueror does not preserve file time stamps during
                    untar of tar archives
           Product: konqueror
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandrake RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: konq-bugs@kde.org
        ReportedBy: ndeb@ece.cmu.edu


Version:           3.1.2 (using KDE 3.1.2)
Installed from:    Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.1 3.2.2-3mdk)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-0.13mdk

In konqueror, click on a local file.tar.bz2 archive file. The contents of the archive \
are displayed in konqueror with the correct timestamps. Now copy the contents of this \
archive (as seen in konqueror) to a directory. The copied files have time stamps set \
to current time. 

This behavior is very different from "tar -jxf  file.tar.bz2" (which preserves time \
stamps). It appears that the copy operation is the culprit and instead of being \
analogous to "cp -p", its doing just "cp" and causing the time stamps to change. The \
time stamps must remain the same.
