Thanks for the report. The problem is that this distribution has packed it's files with a leading '.', ie './Owncheck/' rather than 'Owncheck/'. In certain cases Archive::Extract got the extraction dir wrong and reported it as '.' instead. This is now addressed in Archive::Extract 0.15_03 which I've just uploaded to CPAN. It should propagate within a day, or you could fetch it here: https://pause.perl.org/pub/PAUSE/authors/id/K/KA/KANE/Archive-Extract-0.15_03.tar.gz If you could verify that this distribution fixes the issue, I'll promote it to a stable release.

Sorry for the delay -- newborn baby in the house. I'll try to test next week. Thanks for the response. Chris

No worries, and congratulations! I've had a few people test this release and I've promoted it to stable, so Archive::Extract 0.16 is now on the CPAN. If this release _doesnt_ solve the issue for you, please report it here. Otherwise, I'll consider this bug closed. Good luck with the baby, Jos
