Description
Please try the following:
- get an tar.gz/tar.bz2 or any other archive
- create a symlink to this archive in a different directory
- navigate to this directory
- put cursor on this symlink in mc
- press F2 and x to extract archive contents
Result:
There is no option to extract the archive after pressing F2 to invoke context menu. It is likely because mc doesn't consider the symlink as an archive.
