Here is, indeed, the ready working solution right at this site:
1) Add two PPA's, https://launchpad.net/~frol/+archive/zip-i18n/ (the patches I mentioned in #61, with the same publication reference) and https://launchpad.net/~r0lf/+archive/ppa (libnatspec, it's dependency)
2) apt-get update; apt-get install zip unzip

SOLVED ! I just tested this - works two-way, read and write.

So after fixing the bug technically, the only step remaining is to fix it socially: come to agreement about inclusion of libnatspec and patched InfoZIP into Ubuntu/Debian, or competent voted decision to implement codepage conversion inside InfoZIP in accordance with it's developers, so patches can be ultimately upstreamed.

P.S. Sorry for overlooking the ready solution in the first place, I discovered it doing last-minute duplicate check before creating my own PPA.
