About convmv: in my case at least, unzip’s output does not even follow a valid encoding (e.g. distinct Cyrillic letters are mapped to the same byte sequence). It’s just ASCII-compatible garbage, with no similarity to any existing encoding. So the “decompress files then transcode filenames” method is not applicable. 7z on the other hand decoded my filenames just fine, so the information is somewhere in the zip archive.

unzip -UU foo.zip worked for Turkish characters

I managed to extract .zip file correctly with LANG=ru_RU.CP1251; unzip Bleed.zip (it was Cyrillic encoding in my case). Now I wonder how do I set up my system so that I can correctly open such .zip files in GUI by default?

rar or p7zip refuse to handle .zip archives. Is there a way to extract an archive with filenames in proprietary encodings, on Linux? When I extract with unzip, I get an error: "error: cannot create ╨и╨╕╨┐/Ship_╨п ╨Я╤А╨╛╤З╨╗╨░ ╨Я╤А╨╛ ╨н╤В╨╛ ╨▓╨Ю╨┤╨╜╨╛╨╣ ╨Ъ╨╜╨╕╨╢╨║╨╡!.png File name too long"
