[BUG] If a file inside a zip has emojis in it's filename, Keka asks for encoding but there are no encoding options that would include emojis #1021

Description

@Piipperi

Configuration

  • Keka version: 1.2.52 (4877)
  • macOS version: 12.1 (21C52)

Describe the bug

If I try to extract a zip, that has a file inside it that has emojis in its filename, Keka asks for encoding for the file, however, there are no options that would include emojis. With all encoding options present, they just turn into random garbage depending on the encoding chosen.
I should add that the same behavior does happen with The Unarchiver, however, the default macOS Archive Utility is able to extract the zip with no problem with the emojis still in the filename intact.

Keka.log

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Make a zip file containing a file named with an emoji or emojis
  2. Unzip it with Keka, which should then ask for encoding for the file
  3. Realize there's no encoding option that would seem to support emojis
  4. Try unzipping the same zip with Archive Utility, and the emojis should be there on the resulting file.

Expected behavior

An encoding option that supports emojis
