Description

Like in an other issue reported, you need to explicitly set the code page CP850 to create zip packages hosting file names with correct umlauts their names. (by using the following configuration)

<archiverConfig>
<encoding>CP850</encoding>
</archiverConfig>

After all this solution is not 100% useful, because if you extract this file with the obiously correct umlauts in the zip, wrong chars for all umlauts reappear.
It's strange, because if you unzip this zip file with all other zip tools (7zip, Windows native zip support aso.) the extraction works fine.

Only using the maven-assembly-plugin the umlauts get corrupted.
(a try to set the archiverConfig with the CP850 also for the extracting execution process of the assembly plugin just results in a bad error calling
Failed to configure archiver:
" org.codehaus.plexus.archiver.dir.DirectoryArchiver: Cannot find 'encoding' in class org.codehaus.plexus.archiver.dir.DirectoryArchiver " )
