file roller 7zip centos

file roller 7zip centos

file-roller in gnome will not load 7zip files by default in Centos 6.4.

Some packages are required to be installed in centos.

When I run,

yum search 7z

It gave,

p7zip.x86_64 : Very high compression ratio file archiver
p7zip-plugins.x86_64 : Additional plugins for p7zip
i7z.x86_64 : CLI curses based monitoring tool for Intel Core i7 processors

Install p7zip.x86_64 and p7zip-plugins.x86_64

yum install  p7zip.x86_64 p7zip-plugins.x86_64

Once installed, 7zip files shall be opened by file-roller
