Did you see any issue with iter fix part? It seems to have been omitted intentionally. Any comments on the return value concerns raised in Red Hat bugzilla bug? Is extract_archive expected to stop extracting when it hits first problem (secure extract mode failure, or failure to create symlink if it already exists) as it does with this patch, or should it rather try to extract as much as possible as previous versions used to do and stash false return value until it tried all files in the archive? Thank you! -- Tomas Hoger / Red Hat
