Forge 349: FML is still trying to read Mac Finder meta-data in zip files

[keybounce]

> 2012-11-07 19:00:27 [sEVERE] [ForgeModLoader] There was a problem reading the entry __MACOSX/._mod_MumbleLink.class in the jar /Users/michael/Documents/Games/Minecraft/Playing/Mods/142/MumbleLink-142.zip - probably a corrupt zip

 

This was with forge 349, on a zip file that had to be repackaged. Repackaged with Mac finder -- which stores extended attributes in the zip file.

 

The work-around: Repackage with command-line zip command. Easy enough for me, less so for other users.

 

It's not a class file, despite the name. FML should ignore it, rather than giving up on the entire zip.

You again.

We keep saying, please don't use the mac default gui archiver, it's crap.

If you don't want FML to read it, just don't put in in the mods folder! Tada!

If you keep saying "here's how you should do this, here's how you should do that", why don't you just submit a pull request to FML?

We just tell users to use MultiMC, magiclauncher, or get a proper archiver from mac app store. What's so hard?
