--- Comment #1 from alexxcons <alexxcons at xfce.org> ---
Thanks for the patch !

Hmm, I am not yet full convinced on this one ... using an icon name to check if
something is an archive indeed sounds like a hack.

Is it as well the other way around ... are all files with "package-x-generic"
archives ?

I would at least open a bug against https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib in
order to forsee a proper way to check "is archive" in the future.
