Martin, do I read the Changelog correctly that you assumed the Ubuntu delta for unzip 5.52-12ubuntu1 only concerned UTF-8 and thus you dropped it when Debian released 6.0-1? In fact, I believe this then introduced a regression that made bug 10979 (or this bug, whichever you prefer ;-)) to return. Actually, unicode is mostly not an issue and dealt with in 6.x. What's remaining problematic is non-UTF-8, non-ASCII filenames in zip files. It's my understanding that's what this has been about all along. I believe we will need to reintroduce a similar patch or look into natspec which seems to be able to deal more elegantly and automatically with the matter.
